    We went to Knowsley a few weeks ago and sat for ages watching the mayhem.

    "Why have baboons gone from many safari parks?"

    They seem to be out running for Congress and various parliaments around the world. They are also out monkeying around trying to fix the world economy. Probably couldn't do much worse than the humans trying to do it...;)

    The article calls them 'cheeky apes' and also uses an apostrophe in the plural 'monkey's'. I'm surprised it doesn't point out their foreign origin, not like the Daily Mail to miss an opportunity like that...
