Monkey wars escalate

A group of visitors threw stones at a chimpanzee in Alipore Zoological Gardens on Tuesday morning, provoking the primate to pay them back in their own coin.

The chimp kept pelting stones at the visitors for half-an-hour since 9.15am, prompting them to run for safety, ducking the missiles all the way. Fortunately, no one was injured in the brick-batting between the distant cousins.
