Animals are Smarter Than We Realize
The world is an incredible place. @frank06 tweeted this video, and I thought “Oh great, a monkey figuring out a puzzle.

Google Adsense is Hilarious Sometimes
If you are familiar with our “Monkey has Way with Frog” post then you know what happens… and it’s not so good for the frog. What is funny though, is when Google Adsense picks up the context of the post and displays unintentionally funny ads, like so: Romantic get-away indeed! For what it’s worth, I [...]

African Monkeys Sexually Harass Women
In a small village Nachu in Kenya, there is a group of 300 or so vervet monkeys (Cercopithecus aethiops) that have been stealing crops from the town so successfully that the people in the town are now only able to survive and exist on famine relief. These are the goddamn monkeys you see from people’s [...]
