In a story which perhaps bests the Badger tale from July:
JUST weeks after New Delhi’s deputy mayor toppled to his death fending off a pack of monkeys, the animals have gone back on the attack.
One woman was seriously hurt and two dozen other people were given first aid after monkeys rampaged through a neighbourhood in east Delhi over the weekend, media reports said.
[...]
“I was talking to someone at my door at around 11pm when a monkey appeared,” said Naseema, who goes by one name, told the Times of India.“As I moved inside, the monkey followed and sank its teeth in my baby’s leg.”
[...]
Efforts to drive out the animals is complicated by the fact Hindus view them as a living link to Hanuman, the monkey god who symbolises strength.
This is beyond incredible.
