04 Nov 08 Mail order Monkeys
Stories of kids who bought monkeys from comic books adverts…
It’s screaming like a scalded cat. I’m pouring blood. My friend’s laughing uncontrollably, and my father finally comes in the basement door and goes, ‘Jeffery! What are you doing to that rabbit?’ And I go, ‘It’s not a rabbit, it’s a monkey, and it just bit the hell out of me.’ ‘A monkey? Bring it up here!’ I’m pouring, I wrapped a t-shirt around my arm to stave off the bleeding, carried the cage upstairs, and I don’t know why I bothered sneaking it in, because they fell in love with it, and it was like, there was no problem at all. They took me to the emergency room and I got 28 stitches on my arm.” The young comic reader learned the hard way to never grab a monkey by the tail.

12 Jun 08 Go Cheeta!!
It is one of the greatest injustices ever perpetrated in Hollywood — Cheeta the chimp is not on the Walk of Fame.
The legendary 76-year-old star (yes, 76) of “Bedtime for Bonzo” and “Tarzan” is on a mission to get his name on a star on Hollywood Blvd. Not only does he have his own website, the artistic simian is coordinating an online petition to get him on the Walk, publishing a book, putting a single on iTunes and starring in a new movie!
GO CHEETA!

03 Jun 08 Gemma Atkinsons Chimp to Fight New Madonna Baby

Atkinson ‘delighted’ with latest fighting monkeyThe two year-old chimpanzee is the early favourite despite rumours the Queen of Pop has trained her child in the ways of Kabaddi, the much-feared Jewish martial art.
Atkinson said: “I’m not really supposed to talk about Celebrity Toddler Fight Club, but I will tell you this – my chimpanzee is red-hot.
15 May 08 Fat monkeys put on diet at Japanese park
Fat monkeys at a Japanese park have been put on a diet, and signs have been erected to stop the public from lobbing bananas into their enclosure.
Wardens at Ohama Park in Sakai, near Osaka, have cut down the amount of food they give to the rhesus monkeys from 22lbs (10kg) a day to 4.4lbs (2kg), because many of them are obese. Almost a third of the 50 animals are overweight.
Some of them are so obese they find it hard to even move around their enclosure
While i like the idea of fat monkeys (doesnt everyone), shame on the zoo for allowing them to get in this state. Maybe the instigation of a monkey olympics event would give them impetus need to get back into shape?
