Come on humans, wake up! Now they’re targeting our leaders!!

NEW DELHI: A senior government official died Sunday after falling from a balcony during an attack by wild monkeys at his home in the Indian capital, media reported. New Delhi Deputy Mayor S.S. Bajwa was rushed to a hospital after the attack by the gang of Rhesus macaques, but quickly succumbed to head injuries sustained in his fall, the Press Trust of India news agency and The Times of India reported. . . .Over the years, city authorities have employed monkey catchers who use langurs — a larger and fiercer kind of monkey — to scare or catch the macaques, but the problem persists.

That last part is just an excellent example of putting off dealing with a medium sized problem until today’s half-assed ’solution’ becomes a larger problem. Mark my words: your grandkids and mine will someday contemplate the merits of launching a war to liberate our human brethren on the Sub-Continent from their evil langur overlords. I hope they do.
