Rhesus monkeys have lived in cities in India for centuries. They roam around in gangs with as many as 70 members, like some kinda friggin simian West Side Story.

Unlike their wandering forest-dwelling counterparts, who sleep in different trees every night, city-dwelling monkeys live in fixed dwellings, usually abandoned buildings or rooftops. They may be out roaming the streets by day, but they always come home at night.

Rather than eat their food raw, city monkeys prefer their meals to be cooked. They don't like to do the cooking, though. Instead, they rip off markets or break into houses for a meal. They even snatch food right outta people's hands, usually imessin' people up pretty bad in the process. Imagine being jacked for your donut by one of these suckers! They'll rip ya a new one! Needless to say, this doesn't win them any points with their human neighbors, who beat the sh*t outta them on a regular bases for stealing candy from their babies and such. Sometimes people trap them and release them into the forest. But they make an abrupt 180 and head back to town right away.

They don't live the simple life like their forest cousins; its a h-a-r-d life for these urban monkeys. They always gotta be on their guard, gotta be tough. They get real territorial and vie for social position within their gangs. Although males are usually dominant in the monkey world, an urban female monkey will kick the a** of any forest male!

Wanna rule the world? Don't waste time trying to recruit wimpy forest monkeys to your cause. Get yerself an army of urban monkey soldiers. They might fight on your side if ya keep 'em supplied in fried bananas and such.
