Why would someone shoot a dead monkey?

“ Why would someone shoot a dead monkey?”

That’s your question?

Maybe it was just pining for the fjords.

“”Why would someone shoot a dead monkey?””

You’re right....awful headline. Same as a story from a movie with Dustin Hoffman - “Outbreak”! A little girl fed a monkey on the loose.

Yes, if it's already dead why shoot it again?

One can get practice using just plain ol' paper targets...

Usually dead monkeys aren’t going be an issue so why waste ammo. 🙄

That’s what the NY Post wants to know.

Maybe they are too far away from wildlife and home protection. Why didn’t she just call the super?

One could ask, how would a healthy monkey die wandering around someone’s back yard after falling off a truck

He wouldn’t. It was as alive as you

The article, if you skim it for about 5 seconds, says:

“ “I shot at it and it just stood there, and I shot again, and he backed up and that’s when he fell.”

With police and animal control not yet on the scene, the mother of five said, she decided to shoot the monkey, fearing it would get away and possibly become a threat to children at another house in the neighborhood.”

She could have spanked it, no?

Because it was a Zomboon.

Just the author being "sensitive" because it would hurt the animal rights people if she shot a Live monkey.

But, a rather awkward headline.

How does a dead monkey escape from an overturned truck? Or, even from an upright truck?

I think it means she shot it dead. She unalived it.
