Zoo terror as monkey attacks boy

Terrifying images in the Mail Online show a horrifying ape attack in Ratlam, Madhya Pradesh, India. A macaque monkey jumped on a small boy and knocked him to the ground. The photos show the boy with blood on his hands and face. His injuries are said to be serious; fortunately a zookeeper fought the crazed ape off with a stick before things could get worse. But the horror is likely far from over. As the Mail notes, "Large parts of India are plagued by monkeys who steal food, mug people and break into homes."

Our thoughts and prayers are with the boy, named Raghav, and his family.
