Monkeys of Jaipur — they are funny, but they are a terror; they are stealers and nasty. People literally run inside their homes, and close all doors and windows seeing these monkeys, because open doors and windows mean invitation for the monkeys to steal away refrigerated items, grocery, fresh fruits & vegetables, and everything these monkeys can steal and eat. If you don't allow, they will tear your clothes, scratch you, bite you!

The funny terror monkeys I photographed were a bit away, and did not look like those stealers in groups. I cautiously snapped some photographs. It was a family of 4. They were relaxing.

Usually, these monkeys travel in huge groups, and are unstoppable. They have at least one leader male called Bhadu by locals. He's the biggest one with reddest face and reddest base. Locals say that these monkeys are way more intelligent than you can think of them to be. In fact, the family I photographed was no less. In front of my eyes, they climbed the top of the bungalow, opened the water tank, had dips inside, etc.
