    No joke: scientists discover fishing monkeys!

    ...and they don't need $400 graphite rods. Do you think they use wooly buggers?

    Oddly enough, there are fish who know how to fish.
    Who woulda thunk it...?

    This is why a Circus Peanut works so well.

    I have a friend from Poland who is 6 foot 7.
    He prefers to catch trout w/his bare hands and he is shaped like a gorilla.

      I love this quote

      "it affirms his belief that their ability to thrive in urban and rural environments from Indonesia to northern Thailand could offer lessons for endangered species."

      so all those slacker species going extinct should stop whining about habitat loss and invasive species, and take a lesson from the macaques.

      give a panda a fish, and he wont eat it. but teach a panda to fish, and he'll end up with a whole pile of uneaten fish! which you can then eat for him.
      He found himself wondering at times, especially in the autumn, about the wild lands, and strange visions of mountains that he had never seen came into his dreams.

        I remember they even adapted to living underwater when I was young!

          Woolly bugger? I don't think so. Definitely a silver monkey.
