I'd be setting up a monkey Anne Frank attic.
I was hoping for a (mostly) happy ending for the monkeys like in the movie Project X. Oh well.
Here's hoping someone other than these negligent monkey torturers can find them and get them placed into a sanctuary.
They will either become an invasive species or euthanized.
We may be seeing the birth of the Kudzu monkeys of the Carolinas.
I'm sorry, but there are plenty of invasive primates there already, much worse than macaques at that.
So I hope yes.
I'm still rooting for Escobar's cocaine hippos. I know they're bad for the environment but so are we. Let the hippos be!
They will end up really damaging the Amazon river ecology in some horrible ways because of their poop.
They almost introduced hippos to America as a source of meat, but hippos are too angry, so they gave up on that idea.
I know they are very cute and it's not their fault that they exist there, but I think they should be euthanized.
Don't unroll your windows 'cause those monkeys seem confused and irritable.
At least they don't have herpes.
My thought process-
"There are invasive monkeys in Florida? Oh right, it's Florida. That also explains the herpes."
I can fix that.
How so?
Get me a monkey and I'll show you
No monkey for you
You can be my monkey bb ❣️
Well I am relieved.
These monkeys are used for medical research. We have no idea what infectious diseases they were intentionally given. Born and bred to suffer then be neutralized.
Sounds like the local wildlife might have been dining on exotic fare.
I read the title and the body and I was like, what kind of journalist wouldn't list what kind of monkey it is in the title! Then I opened the article to read further... And immediately understood 99% of their audience wouldn't know wtf kind of monkey that was.
