Criminal monkeys just love to get behind bars

Gangs of monkeys are behind a wave of burglaries in the port city of Durban.

The adaptable vervets have become ingenious and efficient raiders who break into houses to search for food.

The vervets, also known as green monkeys, enter properties in large numbers and even post lookouts in garden trees to alert them to any threats from humans or dogs.

The monkeys, about 75 centimetres tall, like to squeeze through security bars and small windows....

...The hope is that these injured monkeys - many of which are orphans or young males expelled from a troop by dominant males - will form a close-knit gang that will look after each other in the wild...."

In this regard, they have selected a representative to consult with former officials of the Clinton Administration in hopes of receiving technical aid, but progress in these talks has foundered on difficulties encountered with the writing and clearing of campaign contribution checks.

In an related matter, the entire green monkey community has pledged their future votes in a block for Senator Clinton, for either Senator or in a future Presidential race, in exchange for future pardon considerations. Of course, the required US citizenship still depends on the results of planned DNA tests to establish a biological family tie to the Senator.
