- C0leBurns, on 04/18/2008, -1/+45Dugg for the picture of the bastard ape about to chuck his buddy off a cliff
- Bodhinature, on 04/18/2008, -1/+18Those wacky British. Obviously they are so much more civilized than anyone else.
Dugg for the picture of the monkey doing a WWE unsanctioned wrestling maneuver. - Midtowner, on 04/18/2008, -2/+12Kelvins, having been to Gibraltar, I didn't see a single Spaniard there. It's populated exclusively by Brits. The Brits have been there for hundreds of years. I figure they have as much claim to that rock as anyone else.
Basically, the place is a naval base located in a very strategically important spot. - ShempRider, on 04/18/2008, -0/+9hmm. I don't think he's doing a wrestling move.
I think he's offering up a sacrifice to the monkey gods. - BeforeSputnik, on 04/18/2008, -1/+9It also doesn't remind me of Christmas dinner, or playing basketball, or a host of other things that do not relate to controlling monkey populations.
- inactive, on 04/18/2008, -1/+9I was just looking at that title, glad I put "that" in there.
- LiquidCure, on 04/18/2008, -4/+12"Local folklore has it that the colony would cease to be British if the monkeys were to leave. Winston Churchill took it seriously enough to ship extra monkey from north Africa to Gibraltar during the Second World War."

- inactive, on 04/18/2008, -0/+6I guess you could say they went bananas. Or maybe just ape *****?
- manicleek, on 04/18/2008, -1/+7They don't want us to
- terryzom, on 04/18/2008, -2/+7Even British-penned Digg headings are filled with dry, witty humor.
- mavicyp, on 04/18/2008, -1/+6that monkey is doing a gorilla press
- kfm7, on 04/18/2008, -1/+6hey, i can see my house in that pic :)
The apes here can be alrite most of the time, other times they can be assh*les...
Theres different packs of apes and the ones on the east side are terrible - warriorscot, on 04/18/2008, -0/+5Its not a Resort its a Town, they are very aggressive and they have a large area on the rock already but they aren't totally wild they probably would not acclimatise to either the wild or a zoo. They have no natural predators on the Rock so population can't be controlled naturally and there is very little free space in Gibraltar there is little enough space for the people and these aren't animals you want to have running around.
- hasslinthehoff, on 04/18/2008, -1/+6If only Charlton Heston were still with us... he'd fix their poo-covered clock...
- warriorscot, on 04/18/2008, -0/+4The people of Gibraltar were offered the choice to join Spain or stay British they overwhelmingly voted in favour of staying British.
- punkcat, on 04/18/2008, -0/+4rape, murder, arson and rape
- seantubridy, on 04/18/2008, -3/+7Why did you have Yoda rewrite the title of the article? I had to read it 5 times before I understood it.
- Lucas123, on 04/18/2008, -0/+4"Take your stinking paws off of my blow dryer you damn dirty apes!"
- mogebier, on 04/18/2008, -2/+6Time for a Monkey BBQ!!!
- woohhaa, on 04/18/2008, -2/+6Is that damn dirty ape about to ultimate slam the other one off the top of a building?
Maybe they should just let them knock each other off, like the gov't does in the US. - inactive, on 04/18/2008, -1/+4http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_overseas_terr ...
We hate you. - bosssmiley, on 04/18/2008, -2/+5Of course by that date *we'd* already abolished human chattel slavery.
/troll - edebolt, on 04/18/2008, -1/+4I call ribs
- Gunsdead, on 04/18/2008, -4/+6I vote to cull the tourists.
- MidnightRealism, on 04/18/2008, -0/+2The idea of roving simian gangs is unbelievably funny. What exactly do they do, if you don't mind telling us...?
- thumperings, on 04/18/2008, -0/+2I'm just glad they are being culled and not harmed or anything. :P
- idiggitall, on 04/18/2008, -1/+3WTF?
- momsshizzle, on 04/18/2008, -3/+5Black people are funny.
- PDubNYC, on 04/18/2008, -1/+3then what's the real answer?
- DaLukeMan, on 04/18/2008, -1/+2macaques gotten loose O NOOOO
- Buddhaismybuddy, on 04/18/2008, -1/+2are you glad you used an 's' instead of a 'z' in terrorize?
- Witchbaby, on 04/18/2008, -0/+1Considering we are in THEIR territory I say "go for it".
Unless it was me at this resort, then I'd freak out and scream. :) - peergynt016, on 04/18/2008, -2/+3"British soldiers are thought to have introduced the apes, natives of north Africa, into Gibraltar in the mid-18th century to use for shooting practice."
...FALSE
How embarrassing for the writer to believe such a silly rumor. - punkcat, on 04/18/2008, -0/+1monkeys..sigh
- Ogopogo, on 04/19/2008, -0/+1“The apes we are targeting are part of a gang that are going into town and making a nuisance as well as posing health hazards.
“They’ve been spotted going through rubbish, vandalising property and stealing from people. They ran riot at the beach at Catalan Bay.”
Sounds like a typical day in South Los Angeles. Bloods v. Crips - rmxz, on 04/18/2008, -0/+1How about *give* them to the tourists. I have a friend with a pet monkey, and many of his friends are jealous.
- kfm7, on 04/20/2008, -0/+1well last time i was in a restaurant in the nature reserve there was a small ape who opened the window using a stick as a lever with the bars on the outside, it ran in took an icecream from the freezer (which it also opened) then sat outside the window enjoying its icecream (after having opened the packet just like a human wud)
Ive also seen a photo somewhere of an ape enjoying an icecream cone - KTO3TO, on 04/18/2008, -1/+2I've been to Gibraltar and those macaques are scary, they jump on you if they think you have food, but I only saw them up at the very top of a mountain
- ant4177, on 04/18/2008, -0/+1Chimpanzee-that! Monkey news.
- AndreiOttawa, on 04/18/2008, -0/+1Either that, or the ape is about to break the other's back
- dpazar2, on 04/18/2008, -0/+1well...they have apes going through their "Rubbish" and we have..."MAAAAA theres anuther coon gotten into the garbage, should i shoot it??? (In deeeeep southern accent)
- KTO3TO, on 04/18/2008, -0/+1Or is it an ape attacking/jumping on the other ape that is raising its arms in an attempt to defend itself?
- heartcoldfusion, on 04/18/2008, -2/+2Culling also = not drawing the vertices of a polygon that are back facing?!
- inactive, on 04/18/2008, -1/+1okay
- punkcat, on 04/18/2008, -1/+1yeah, as soon as he dies the monkey rebellion begins
- pegothejerk, on 04/18/2008, -3/+3why don't we just send in a bunch of ligers to eat them? they'll freeze to death in winter, I hear.
- BeforeSputnik, on 04/18/2008, -3/+2Can't they just transport the monkeys from the resort to a jungle? I bet there's a zoo or two that would take a few. Lethal injection is a poor way to prevent monkey infections.
- nj10ii, on 04/18/2008, -8/+6The British apparently weren't all that good at their target practicing were they?
Now we have to go in a clean up another mess they've started and kill a bunch of monkeys. Unlike the killing of the Iraq and Afghanistan monkeys, this one will probably not get the UN invovled... - AstroZombie138, on 04/18/2008, -8/+3I, for one, welcome our new barbary ape overlords.
