Savitri Devi was sitting on a terrace with her daughter-in-law in northern India when they were attacked by the violent primates ..."
"...as they both fled the terrifying assault, the pair fell off the terrace – a plunge which killed Savitri “on the spot”, reports The Times of India.
Renu was rushed to hospital with serious injuries.
It is not clear the distance the pair fell from the terrace or Savitri's exact cause of death.
This is the third death caused by monkeys in Uttar Pradesh in the last three months.
Indian activists are now calling for the protected species to be moved to a sanctuary and funds to be raised to pay for sterilisation and victim compensation.
In November, a woman bled to death after being attacked by a group of belligerent mammals in Agra.
The victim, whose age varies in reports between 58 and 59, was bitten to death after wandering into a field near her home.
That horror attack came days after a 12-day-old baby was bitten to death by another monkey, on the outskirts of Agra.
Baby Arush was rushed to hospital but was sadly declared dead on arrival after he was fatally attacked.
The child's father Yogesh, who drives an auto rickshaw, told local media: "The front door was left open and my wife was breastfeeding the baby when a monkey suddenly ran into the house."
Yogesh said that the monkey grabbed the infant by his neck and ran off before his mum Neha could do anything.
The couple, who have been married for two years, chased the animal and found their first-born child on a neighbour’s roof.
Little Arush was bleeding profusely and had no pulse, according to the father.
Reports said that the same monkey attacked a sleeping 14-year-old girl in the neighbourhood about 15 minutes before running off with Arush.
Local police confirmed that the infant’s body has been sent for an autopsy and will be given back to the family for burial.
Singh added that another baby was attacked by a monkey in the same area two months ago but fortunately survived and is recovering in hospital. ..."
Machetes and an organized posse. Fix that problem in no time.
Are monkeys one of those protected animals in India? I heard something about a “Monkey god” who saved the princess with his tail or some such.
I’d never live where these vermin were prevalent. And if I did, I’d shoot them on sight, illegal or not. Maybe even poison them. Or perhaps any of a dozen different ways to exterminate them discretely.
Look at those fangs! Apes and monkeys are very dangerous and much stronger physically than us. I remember the incident in Connecticut a few years back when someone’s “pet” chimp went ballistic and ripped a woman’s face off. She survived but required a facial transplant!
Hanuman.
There are macaques on Gibralter——and we were warned about them by our tour guide.
I didn’t know about this type of agressiveness,though.

The problem with something being in “protected” status: if they don’t fear you as a predator, then they will treat you as prey.
This principle does not just apply to monkeys.
Oh, so it’s okay to say “macaque” but not “macaca”. What if the headline had been AOC chased off rooftop?
Teeth like the New Commie Congresswoman.
Rise of the Planet of the Apes.
And then she was eaten by her pet alligator why her 3-year-old son petted the family cobra.
India is just weird.
Reason #2,532 to never go to India.
All this time we assumed that The Planet Of The Apes would take place in New York...
“You must choose, Sheriff Woody. How shall she die? Shark? Or death by monkeys?”
Guess he chose “Death by monkeys”.
A Browning A-5 would do the job and send a message.
