great day!

monkey meat?

I watched a video where they brought a live monkey to a table of hungry
people.
They put the monkey in a cage down inside the middle of the table but
left the monkeys head sticking up on the table. Just the head. Alive!

Everybody was given a plate and napkins and a wooden mallet.

monkey brains!

Yep. That bothered me worse than the humans being killed.
But I've been hearing recently that it was all faked.

The sad part is it's not all that far from the truth. Many non-human
primate species are being dessimated by the trade in bushmeat, chimp
and gorilla being two that are at the top of the list. It's not only
native people who are consuming bushmeat; it's now being illegally
exported to places like Europe, Japan and other parts of SE Asia.

One really can't blame the natives... they've been eating it God knows
how long as a means of survival and more than likely would have had
little effect on the population had it not been dessimated by poachers.
It's the human scum that walk this earth with a desire to eat or own
exotic animals out of sheer vanity and the poachers who provide them
that service by killing or stealing them from their habitat who need to
be ostracized from civil societies. Kev

That shit has haunted me for years. It's one of the reasons I became a
primate activist. I will never forget the look on the geek's face
(horned-rimmed glasses, cigarette in hand) as they bash the monkey to
death. Ugh.

Nope. A delicasy in places like the Phillipine Islands. Disgusting to me
though.

much better?
