I live in Ocala and am beginning to see more and more dead monkeys in the road and having to avoid more groups of live ones crossing roads further and further away from Silver Springs in and around the forest. Both sad and disturbing. Sad for the monkeys, and sad for me because as much as I ride around here it's only a matter of time before a group wrecks me and I end up a mangled Softail Salad in a rural ditch with Macaques eating my flesh.

I've had close encounters with numerous Deer, Bobcats, Rattlesnakes, Copperhead, and a couple of Black Bear, one a sow with 3 cubs, causing an abrupt course correction; however, all those pale in comparison to the thought of a troop of herpes infected, flesh eating Rhesus Macaques.

The problem is that non-residents are treating these monkeys like pets and feeding them. The fools are renting houses when they visit and leaving food out for the monkeys, which causes major problems for permanent residents in those particular neighborhoods. If local authorities would hold those people and the individuals who rent houses to them accountable then that would be a step in the right direction. It is not the solution to the whole problem though. People, these animals are not pets and don’t treat them like they are pets.
