’Gang war’: Two monkeys kill 250 dogs in a revenge attack in India

Two monkeys killed nearly 250 dogs in a revenge attack after a pack of dogs killed an infant monkey, which took place in a village of Maharashtra, India.

It was reported that the Nagpur Forest Department team captured two monkeys for spreading terror in a region for at least a couple of months. The authorities will release the monkeys in a nearby forest.

According to eyewitnesses, the monkeys were killing dogs for the last couple of months in Lavool village. Monkeys used to roam around in a region to catch dogs as soon as they saw and kidnapped them. They took dogs to a certain height and threw them (dogs) either from rooftops or trees.

The villagers reported Dharur’s Forest Department when monkeys attacked school-going children. Such incidents created panic among people.

However, an official from the department said, “This [the killing of an infant monkey by dogs] is said to have enraged the monkeys, who in retaliation are killing the puppies of dogs as per local residents. But we do not have any proof to back up this theory. It’s animal behaviour and we cannot ascertain why they are behaving like this.”

Meanwhile, netizens started circulating amusing memes on ‘monkeys vs dogs gang war’ on social media.
