When I was studying in China some 20 years ago, I visited the local zoo.  The lion pens were locked from behind with padlocks that weren't fastened.  My first thought was I could walk in and take one of those cubs, if mom wouldn't kill me for trying.

/I didn't actually try

I was going to say something about how it's crazy to steal monkeys because they're ungodly strong, but the type stolen weigh about a pound, soo... 🤷‍♂

No more monkeys jumping on the bed?

The thieves will either try to sell them as exotic pets or keep them. Either way some TikTok video featuring these animals should drop soon, unless they have already died or escaped.

Hold up there Subby.  "Stole" implies we're property and we do NOT appreciate that.

They can latch onto your face and f*ck you up. Little spider monkeys are vicious, weight doesn't have much to do with it.

....or at least set them loose in a Hobby Lobby....

But don't steal one. Cripes.

They increased security and still can't guard some animals that are already in cages?
Sounds like an inside job.

I wonder if this had anything to do with the QB from Georgia who got busted for banging on doors in Dallas.

I used to get drunk and steal monkeys from zoos. Turns out monkeys aren't as good of party companions as you would think. Now, I get drunk and steal ring-tailed lemurs from zoos. Lemurs can party all night long.

"Possibly Criminal"? I don't think it is legal, even if the head man at the zoo dose it. I assume that they cut a hole in the fence to get them. What in the name of God is going on with that Zoo? I don't think any other major zoo has had so many odd things happen in many years. I really liked it when I went there, but they need to investigate every bit of the place to figure out what they need to due to keep the people and the animals safe.

Stolen indeed! They got bored with Dallas and decided to try their luck in England, where they'd heard there was work for monkeys in advertising.

As for what the simian community in Britain will make of the Yanks...

This isn't the first incident. A bird was killed, a leopard was let out and other enclosures had holes cut in them. All of this over the past few weeks.

My money's on exotic animals thieves and I bet the dead bird (vulture?) fought back.

Dystopian for the humans.  The monkeys did pretty well, relatively speaking.
