Monkey wars in India

The deputy mayor of Delhi, India, was recently killed by a band of monkeys. His tragic death is apparently the latest and worst attack by the city's "plague of monkeys," which has harried citizens for decades. The solution? According to a BBC article, "One approach has been to train bands of larger, more ferocious langur monkeys to go after the smaller groups of Rhesus macaques." Monkey wars!

The lizards are a godsend.

--But isn't that a bit short-sighted? What happens when we're overrun by lizards?

No problem. We simply release wave after wave of Chinese needle snakes. They'll wipe out the lizards.

--But aren't the snakes even worse?

Yes, but we're prepared for that. We've lined up a fabulous type of gorilla that thrives on snake meat.

--But then we're stuck with gorillas!

No, that's the beautiful part. When wintertime rolls around, the gorillas simply freeze to death.

...and so it begins.

In the end we will see the Statue of Liberty buried in the Desert with only one arm pocking out of it.

Looks like someone might have trained a band of monkeys to attack Kid Rock!
