Will he also be re-enacting the American Civil War for the Stonecutters?

Is mother-monkey dialing a cellphone?

I hear his mother was a white gorilla...

More than ten posts into a thread about Colobus monkeys and not one Simpsons reference yet?

Actually, no.

See post #9.

I feel sorry for the poor disfigured monkey.

As a black American living in Canada, I am deeply offended by this headline. I demand that the monkey write an apology.

/or at least plagiarize the one written by the New York Post's monkey (new window)

Which one of them is Nancy Pelosi?

I'm protesting this headline. The submitter and modmins should have clearly known that I would take offense to it as it is clearly racist.

The cartoon referenced...which I don't get and which seems awfully tacky...

The cartoon was stupid but I don't think it was the cartoonist's intention to symbolize Obama as a primate. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Anyway it seems to me that those protesting this are drawing more attention to the "black=monkey" comparison, which is heinous enough without being brought up unnecessarily.

"With a moon like that, every monkey for 200 miles thinks he's Elvis Presley..."

Lets hope this little guy lasts longer than the stingrays, the elephant, and emo goat. A friend of mine is a PR person for the Calgary Zoo, and the last few years have been a tough time there because of the high profile animal losses.
