Monkey See, Monkey Do

My favorite story over the weekend was of a clever spider monkey who escaped from a zoo in Michigan City, Ind. Workers left a garden hose hanging down the wall of the moat, and the monkey used it to scale the wall and dash away.

What’s really hilarious is that the monkey was recaptured at a nearby boat dealership, perched on top of a blue and white speedboat.

The public didn’t go ape over the safety threat, because the zoo director said this monkey was very “sociable,” and posed no danger to people. No danger, that is, except that he made a MONKEY out of them with such an easy getaway!

PRAYER REQUEST: Lord, grant favor and fortune to the people of Iowa, who face grave dangers from flooding as the Mississippi River crests. Protect life, limb and property, Lord, and use this episode to train Your people to help and serve others, and continue to trust You. (Psalm 31:24)
