YouTube: This is at the cafe inside the Memphis Zoo. The manager of the cafe told me that the alpha male monkey noticed me the second I walked in the door and started going crazy, because, as the alpha male, he feels threatened by tall males. So she told me to go stand by the window and turn my back on him and that he would "attack" me...

It's Purely Animal - Issue No. 48 - Monkey is Threatened
So this is pretty interesting. A man was warned by a zoo worker at a Memphis Zoo that a monkey will feel his alpha-male status threatened if any tall men were to walk into the area. When he's told to turn his back to the monkey, the monkey takes advantage of his unaware state. Just watch.

Are People Really This Stupid? Issue No. 11 - Lions, Tigers and Bears
By now you've probably read about or heard of the story out of Zanesville, Ohio, where an idiot released 56 exotic animals before he shot himself to death.
Why he was allowed to own them is beyond me. Scratch that! In Ohio you are allowed to own whatever the hell you want. Are people really this stupid?
I'm going to say yes, and I'm also going to say yes to the idiots (the cops) who killed all 18 Bengal Tigers, of which are rare, with only a few thousand in existence today. They also shot and killed, 6 bears, several lions, wolves and monkeys. It was a massacre!
Why didn't law enforcement use tranquilizers? These animals could have gone to zoos across the nation. It's a travesty, I'm telling you.
Terry Thompson was recently released from prison for illegal firearm possession, his wife left him, and didn't have the means to continue feeding these creatures. Supposedly he did this in retaliation of his neighbors and the cops. I would understand if all the creatures ventured into town and needed to be put down to protect the residents, but as you can see in the picture, most of them were together.
Definitely sadness all around.
