Alcoholic killer monkey leaves one man dead and 250 injured after going on rampage when his booze supply dried up
- The monkey was formerly the pet of an occultist who fed him hard liquor in India
- But when his owner died, the booze-dependent imp went on the rampage
- Named Kalua, he targeted women and girls in particular with his vicious fangs
- He has now been captured and will spend the rest of his days in a cage at the zoo
An alcoholic killer monkey who bit 250 people after going on the rampage when his booze supply dried up is to spend the rest of his life behind bars in India.
The inebriated imp, known as Kalua, was formerly the pet of an occultist who fed him hard liquor at his home in Mirzapur, Uttar Pradesh.
But after his owner died, the bereft boozer stopped getting his supply of spirits and began prowling the streets in a furious rage.
The simian targeted women and girls in particular, with dozens of children left needing plastic surgery after he ripped open their faces with his fangs.
It has been decided that Kalua the monkey will remain locked in a cage at Kanpur Zoo, Uttar Pradesh, for the rest of his days
One of Kalua’s 250 biting victims later died, IANS reported.
The six-year-old monkey was eventually captured and hauled into Kanpur Zoo where zoologists discovered that he was not only an alcoholic, but that he refused to eat vegetables.
The scientists believe that the occultist must have also fed the monkey meat, another possible cause for his indefatigable anger.
It was also noted that the monkey had a propensity for attacking female zookeepers and would also attack other monkeys if put in the same cage.
It has therefore been decided that Kalua will remain locked in a cage at the zoo for the rest of his days.
