The free-to-roam primates draw hundreds of tourists a day. But the apes routinely hunt through garbage, throw feces at people, and even attack visitors. They are a huge risk for transmitting salmonella or hepatitis to humans because of their filthy behavior.

And to think, we always perceived little monkeys as nice animals. Sure they can have their fun but you would have never thought the little ones would be trying to attack you. And if someone had a gash like in the picture above, he had better hope the monkeys didn’t throw anything at them.
