Now I'm hungry.

They are equating black people with chimps and monkeys...racist maybe?

No, they're showing that Africans have been saving us from the monkey uprising for centuries by eating them.

Interesting article and one it imparts a little bit more info on the use of stone tools for other ape species too. I had no idea Capuchins and Macaques used them, and that their utilizing of stone tools goes back for many generations. While it goes on to say its only some communities of apes in Brazil/West Africa, aren't they or could they be on a similar pathway to evolutionary development that were were on?

I would not say this because then when the monkey's eventually revolt people will have someone to point the finger at. Then just hope the monkey's don't ever watch the Indiana Jones movie where they eat monkey brains because then we're pretty much all doomed. Then all copies of the movie Congo need to be fitted with automatic self destructs.

is that really the most effective way to cook a monkey?

Didn't Ebola come about due to eating bush meat like that. I need to look it up. Seemed like I read that somewhere.

Yeah, that's pretty much the gist of it.
