Whoever said rules were meant to be broken has clearly never ignored signs instructing tourists not to feed the monkeys. This hapless man learnt the hard way when he attempted to hand out snacks to local primates. A picture has emerged online of what looks like a tourist being swarmed by the furry creatures. Predictably, the internet responded with a barrage of memes. The location and the man were both mocked up in a range of different scenarios. They included a scene from the Russell Crowe blockbuster Gladiator and the cartoon Tarzan. But while the man appeared to be enjoying himself, in most places, feeding monkeys is highly discouraged for several reasons. Not to feed the monkeys! Man is swarmed by primates 25 Views Tuesday, 12 July 2016Untitled-1 Whoever said rules were meant to be broken has clearly never ignored signs instructing tourists not to feed the monkeys. This hapless man learnt the hard way when he attempted to hand out snacks to local primates. A picture has emerged online of what looks like a tourist being swarmed by the furry creatures. 4 Predictably, the internet responded with a barrage of memes. The location and the man were both mocked up in a range of different scenarios. They included a scene from the Russell Crowe blockbuster Gladiator and the cartoon Tarzan. But while the man appeared to be enjoying himself, in most places, feeding monkeys is highly discouraged for several reasons. One of the main issues is that monkeys are very susceptible to contracting diseases from human hands and they can easily fall ill from germs that have no effect on men, women and children. It is also dangerous for humans as irregular feeding by tourists can cause aggressive behaviour from monkeys, they often carry diseases like hepatitis B and rabies as well. Despite these warnings, and many other reasons for not feeding monkeys, tourists continue to do so in various countries around the world. Just a couple of months ago, tourist having her mobile snatched by a monkey in Leshan, Sichuan Province, China. The woman was leaning forward with an arm outstretched to feed the creature during a tour, but as well as snatching her edible offerings, the cheeky monkey also swiped her smartphone.
