the banana thief


As Brina had told me that the monkeys in Pushkar like to eat bananas out of your hand, I went and bought a bunch after breakfast this morning. I returned to my room, stepped out onto the patio, and before I even had time to blink this big male langur monkey jumped down behind me, made his way into the room, and snatched the bananas right out of my bag. We stood there looking at each other, the banana thief and I, before he gave me a huge, satisfied grin, and calmly rocked out, whilst clutching his trophies in his hand, knowing that he had won the battle.
