Java, Indonesia: OK To Shoot Monkeys


No, no, don’t aim your guns at Micky, Michael nor Peter of the Monkees. According to the South China Morning Post, the government of Indonesia has had enough of wild long-tailed macaques stealing food and attacking citizens.

Now, armed guards, police, military and amateur hunters are authorized to kill any monkeys who raid villages, rob and endanger citizens. If your travels take you to the Boyolali District in Central Java, don’t monkey around.

Be sure you pay a fair price for everything you buy, and maybe sing, I’m A Believer. Then you won’t make a monkey out of yourself. or worse, go ape in Java.
