This is problem?
Florida has too many pythons also. Do monkeys eat pythons? Or do pythons eat monkeys?
That was my favorite Fla vacation spot. It was such a fun place!...and yes, I saw the monkeys. I saw my 1st Kodiak bear there. They are huge...and I loved feeding the giraffes and cruising in the glass bottomed boats. Great memories! I think it’s just a state camping place now and no one wants to deal with the herpes monkeys anyway...sigh
When I was a kid, we went to Silver Springs on field trips when I was in elementary school. Across the street there was an attraction called Six Gun Territory, it was like an old west cowboy town where they staged mock shootouts, etc.
ROTFL!!!
Pythons will eat monkeys, no problem.
I went to Monkey Jungle as a kid living in Florida during the early 60’s.
Yes it was a big tourist attraction. I think we went there once when I was a kid.
