Protective Monkey Mom Bites Man

Occurred on June 6, 2013 / Ubud, Bali, IndonesiaShow more

Info from Licensor: "Family holiday in Bali, visited the Monkey forest at Ubud. An infant monkey jumped on Tim trying to get into the back pack. The monkeys are clever enough to open zippers, and that is what this young one was trying to do. Out of the view of the camera, there were a number of monkeys nearby. One came over, presumably the mother of the infant, and jumped up and bit Tim on the arm. We were afraid that many would run over and attack if the mother became further agitated. Tim was taken to the ER and was treated. We all laugh about it now, but it was scary at the time."
