India Hires Mimics To Scare Away Parliament Monkeys Monkeys in Delhi Thousands of macaque monkeys roam Delhi's streets
Forty Indian men have been hired to impersonate monkeys to scare away the real monkeys from Delhi's parliament and other government buildings.
The men make screeching noises similar to those of black-faced langur monkeys, to frighten red-faced macaque monkeys.
Thousands of macaque monkeys roam Delhi's streets, trashing gardens and offices and attacking people for food.
But the animals are considered sacred by Hindus, who often feed them, encouraging them to remain.
Delhi's civic authorities were earlier using real langurs to keep monkeys away from the parliament complex.
But the practice had to be abandoned after protests from animal rights activists and a court order that keeping monkeys in captivity was cruel.
