NY Times: Primates are BAD Pets

A NY Times article just seems to confirm that primates make terrible pets. The article features people who, despite being bitten and attacked by their pet primates, kept them. I can only hope that the media coverage of the Stamford chimp attack will make people realize they are crazy to take on an animal that can live 40-60 years and that can very often become violent.

This photo reminds me of a long story that involves an escaped kangaroo in Philly, my friend Mark, and a very angry monkey with very good aim in throwing peanuts.
