I do not say this lightly The image of these roving desperate monkey gangs driven mad by starvation is one of the scariest things I have ever seen https://twitter.com/RafaWildNature/status/1257424863523987459 …

A wild dog can rip your throat out with its teeth but it can't, like, *grab* you It can't molest you with its horrible tiny little fingers It can't *pick up* its own feces and *throw* them at you

All the tourists who fed them peanuts and shit vanishing is just the push they need to figure out the basic use of tools and weapons

You remember the episode of Enterprise where there's a species dying of a plague and Dr Phlox says it would be wrong to save them because there's another, more primitive species that's about to replace them if they just let the first one die out

To be fair, Monkey Jungle was an "attraction" in SoFlorida, well before Walt Disney started buying land near Kissimmee. Monkey Jungle opened in 1933. It was a yearly field trip in grade school (from Miami Beach), an event I always tried to avoid for many of reasons Vincent cites.

I know it's tangential to your thread, but, man, you cannot imagine how much weirder and more screwed up Florida was in the 1970s. The place was filthy with horrific animal attractions and freaky little museums.

As a native lifelong South Floridian, I can tell u 1) I visited Monkey Jungle twice (as a child and adult) and, after seeing SWIMMING monkeys, I prefer not to go again. 2) Many of my neighbors, coworkers, gym buddies are New Yorkers so wonder where that FL reputation comes from?

I didn't know this story: I started following you, all in all, recently, Sir. I don't know if I'm more sorry about how humans can have fun in this bad place for these creatures or surprised because the trauma terror, you have with the monkeys, I have with the moths (same scream)
