Greedy killer monkeys found eating large rats in Malaysia

Greedy killer monkeys were found to be catching and gobbling up large rats in Malaysia.

Shocked scientists uncovered the rat-catching macaques on palm oil plantations – and say the hungry predators could be used as pest control.

They would also hunt for meaty prey sometimes, but generally only small lizards and birds.

Now scientists have confirmed that these monkeys are also regularly snatching and devouring large rats.

Maybe they need to export some of them to L.A. and Baltimore.

I know there is a monkey joke in there somewhere.

Why are they greedy monkeys? Do they steal one another's large rats? Or do they eat more rat than their "fair share"? Inquiring minds want to know.
