Nasty creatures best left alone in the wild.

Once, as a young lad, I found myself in the Philippines. While residing in a quonset hut, an associate decided to take photos of the monkeys that were up the trees. Unbeknownst to any of us, monkeys do not like camera noises.

An entire group of them rapidly descended the trees with their teeth bared. We were amused as first, but quickly realized that they were not fucking around. We closed the doors at both ends and barred them. The monkeys began banging on the doors and pounding on the windows. What is a funny story now was truly TERRIFYING in the moment; more than one of us were sure we were going to be harmed. We were trapped the the hut for about 20-30min until the monkeys, presumably, felt they made their point and went back up into the trees. No more monkey photos were taken during my stay there.

I definitely can see how murder could happen.

Chimps are apes.

Google tells me that the monkeys are Macaque's. Apparently, "macaque" is Philippine for "angry, sharp-teeth bearing."*

Is a monkey and a chimpanzee the same thing?

Chimpanzees are often thought of as a type of monkey. ... But chimpanzees aren't monkeys. Chimps are instead great apes, belonging to a family of mammals known as Hominidae. Other hominids include gorillas, orangutans, bonobos, and humans.

CHIMPS, HUMANS, AND MONKEYS: WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

"if you don't think chimps would steal babies and eat them, you haven't been paying attention to the literature."

Animals and pandemics killing us, AI robots, yellowstone, aliens, asteroids all in line behind them. It's like the scene from Airplane! where they're linkng up to beat the shit out of the hysterical woman.

Which one gets to be the winner in answering Fermi's paradox?
