Bold Monkey Feasts On His Stolen Bananas
Monkeys are very clever and very cheeky animals. They have extremely flexible ethics when it comes to food and they are not above robbery and theft to get it. This big male macaque ventured in the open door of a tour bus and hijacked an entire bag of bananas from the seat nearest the door.
Tourists watched in disbelief as the monkey brazenly hopped up onto the bus and climbed onto the seat. Knowing exactly what he wanted, he snatched the bag and jumped back down onto the ground before anyone could intervene. He made his way over to the sidewalk in front of the bus and ripped the bag open so he could sample the "fruits of his crime". Without shame or worry, he munched away, confident that nobody would try to take the bananas back. He eats rapidly and keeps a watchful eye all around, but that's only so that he can be aware of any other approaching monkeys. With his agility and quick reflexes, no clumsy human would stand a chance of getting the bananas away from him.
This monkey lives in Ubud Monkey Forest in Bali, Indonesia. It's a sanctuary where the monkey troop roams freely, enjoying a very natural life in many ways. Tourists are welcome to wander the paths of the forest and watch the monkeys. Occasionally, the monkeys take a serious interest in the tourists, or their snacks. Although these animals are still wild, they are well acquainted with people visiting and they can be trusted enough to allow some interaction. Guides wander the paths as well and they keep a close eye the animals to make sure that everything remains friendly.
Visitors are able to see monkeys close up here. The monkey troop thrives in a sanctuary that is protected and funded by tourism, and the village itself profits from the tourism funds that the forest brings. This is a win for all concerned.
But guests are warned to avoid bringing food as it can cause misunderstandings and aggression, even among the monkeys themselves. The bananas had been left on the bus innocently enough. Nobody expected this smooth criminal to commit such a brazen daylight robbery.
