A fews years ago, several people on my block insisted they saw a monkey wandering the streets late at night. My next door neighbor swore up and down he spotted one screeching and chattering as he scurried up and down his gutters. Several neighbors filed reports with the local authorities who scoffed at the notion. Eventually, police apprehended a feral child who, it turns out, had been raised by monkeys. He's now a caddy at a local golf club- not much help if you lose a ball in a water hazard but he's great if one gets stuck in a tree.
