In the lighter side of current events, the BBC warns that monkeys in India are a threat to their national security:
India’s Supreme Court has ordered 300 monkeys captured from the streets of Delhi to be transferred to forests in the central state of Madhya Pradesh.
Thousands of monkeys roam the capital, mostly around government offices, and are considered a public nuisance.
They have terrorised bureaucrats and in one instance even ripped up top secret defence documents.
Of all the things I would expect a supreme court to decide, protection of security documents from monkeys was not at the top of my list.
But already there are some who are opposing the move, saying the monkeys may find it difficult to adjust to life in the wild after having been raised in an urban environment.
Apparently there are no good sources of defense documents in the wild. And probably very few bureaucrats. How can anyone expect a monkey to survive without access to top secret information?
