Monkeys make a meal of human babies

Chimpanzees struggling to survive amid the destruction of their forest habitat are snatching and killing human babies.

At least eight children have died in the past seven years in Uganda and Tanzania after being taken by chimpanzees and a further eight have been injured. The children were found with limbs and other body parts chewed off.

Primate experts blame deforestation and human encroachment on the chimpanzees' habitat for the aggressive behaviour, but are divided on whether the animals are defending their territory or seeking a replacement food source.

Chimpanzees were believed to be largely vegetarian until British ape expert Jane Goodall discovered in the 1960s that they are predatory animals who often hunt smaller primates in packs.

Further studies have identified striking similarities between chimp and human aggressive behaviour, including rape, wife-beating, murder and infanticide. Attacks on human young, however, are a recent development.

The attacks in Uganda have been documented by Michael Gavin, a conservation biologist, in an eight-month study reported in the January edition of BBC Wildlife magazine. In one of the most recent fatalities, Jackson Alikiriza, a three-month-old baby, was snatched as he was being carried by his mother, Anet, while she harvested potatoes.

Mrs Alikiriza fled when she saw a chimp approaching but could not outrun the animal. She said: "It grabbed my leg and I fell. Then it took my baby." By the time help was summoned and the chimp was chased away by a man armed with a spear the baby's nose and upper lip had been eaten away. He died a week later.

Another chimp carried out several attacks until he was hunted down and stabbed to death by villagers.

Dr Gavin said the technique used by the chimps to kill or maim the children mirrored the way they tore apart other prey, suggesting they snatched the human young to eat.

"In most cases they bite off the limbs first before disemboweling them, just as they would the red colobus monkey which is one of their favourite prey," he said.

But Dr Gavin defended the chimps as simply trying to survive in the face of human expansion: "They are just trying to get by. If they can't get enough food in the forest they are going to wander out in search of what's available."

Until the 20th century Uganda boasted a chimp population of several million, but an 86 per cent reduction of forest has cut that number to fewer than 5000. As their habitat disappears so do their food supplies and that, combined with greater proximity to humans, has led them to discover that small children and babies are easily caught and a good source of protein, according to experts.

Frans de Waal, professor of primate behaviour at Atlanta's Emory University, said: "I am not sure these cases have much to do with territoriality. I think they rather have to do with predation. Chimpanzees hunt and eat monkeys. "It is especially the males which hunt. I don't think chimps mistake a human baby for a monkey. They're far too smart for such a mistake."

But Pan African Sanctuaries Alliance secretary Doug Cress said the attacks were the symptoms of a territorial "fear reaction" to being squeezed out of their natural habitat

So the cute sticking out tongue thing is just to lure us in?

No He's licking his chops in satisfaction.

Did it taste like chikin?

I googled "what do people taste like" and was just a little disturbed to see it being the second suggested option for "what do people".Also the amount of websites are just a bit creepy.I'm starting to think that when google says that a team of highly trained monkeys are working on a problem that they might just be serious. (some of you b"h didn't spend enough time on a computer to get this).

The results from testimonies:

"The flesh tastes like pork, a little bit more bitter, stronger. It tastes quite good."

Though some disagree and say it tastes like veal or tuna.

Also it's legal to eat a person.

And halachically it's not so bad either I think, look at the minchas chinuch on it for more information.

I think this belongs in the Cholent thread, or maybe in the Seudas Shabbos one. Where's our resident Mashgiach?

okay i realized that i started this whole thing with the eating comment but maybe we could change the subject to something more pleasant? i mean i would even go back to cleaning toilets!

crazy story!

for those who don't know i moved recently, and i've been trying out shuls in my area. this shabbos morning i was at shul (i've never been there before) and i saw a guy who was pretty obviously dealing with something. he was walking back and forth and he looked like he was in pain. i looked up at one point and the guy was standing right next to me. he told me "you may think i'm crazy but can i talk to you?" turns out the guy is in a 12 step program, came to israel for a vacay and had a slip. it was eating him up inside and he woke up shabbos morning and asked Hashem for someone to talk to. he told me that something inside him told him to talk to me. when i told him that i'm in a 12 step program myself his face lit up brighter than the sun. we ended up talking for more than an hour. after, you could mamash see a physical difference in the guy. i pointed out to him, that out of all the people in shul he picked a guy to talk to that's in a program!

HOLY SHMEGEGIES!!!!!

THAT's WILD!!!!!!

Wow! Thank you for sharing!
