Misahualli is a town in Ecuador's Napo province, in the Amazon region. The monkeys rule the town and live openly in the main square as a rowdy gang.
Naturally tourists love to lark around with the monkeys, but they'd better keep a close eye on their possessions.
When I was taking these photos I left my motorcycle jacket unguarded and returned to find a monkey trying to drag it away. Luckily it was too heavy but the monkey was persistent. I tried to shoo him away but he unfurled his lips like Dracula and showed me his terrifying fangs. Surely he won't bite me, I reasoned (with no logic whatsoever) and shooed him again. This time he tried to bite me. A local Kichwa man who'd watched the situation unfold picked up a rock and lobbed it at the thieving mono. "Would be haven bitten me?" I asked. "Claro," he said.
Wow, Excellent post. Its very interesting and enjoyable. Thanks for your nice post.

I enjoyed looking at those pictures. They are all so cute. I really like monkeys, and I was amazed at how that baby reacted and moved. It's like he wants to take care of the dog so much. Thank you for sharing that, Tom! All the best to you!

Wow I love this blog and the entertaining photos which accompany it. I have done some voluntary work in the past at a monkey sanctuary and know how cheeky they can be. It's best to be cautious of them at all times. I thought it was funny that the monkey had its hand in the dogs mouth. Hope your jacket is ok.
