Vermin as pets...Why?

[Desmond Hawkins]

That is a real monkey, and by God it is cute. Anyways, you can see why it would be hard for people to resist having monkey pets, but folks they are better in the wild, and happier.

Well lets all go live in the wild, banana anyone?

Isn't it true that all pets are better and happier in the wild?

Monkeys adapt to new environments surprisingly well. Next time your in Bombay or New Delhi, you’ll be able to see monkeys running water tapes, opening doors and windows, and getting free rides from cars.

Isn't it true that all pets are better and happier in the wild?

Well, no. Plenty of pets are domesticated to the point they would be hard pressed to survive in the wild.

That monkey, tho, hardly belongs to them.

Don't worry guys. The monkey in the picture is used by the US army for detecting land mines...

 

[the mormegil]

Noooooo! How could they! It could be better used to infiltrate the enemy HQ and spy. No-one would suspect it...

Yes, wild animals always live in total peace and harmony with each other, and live long happy lives 'til they die of old age.

I think some of you need to audit a few more National Geographic specials...
