It’s so hot in Mexico that howler monkeys are falling dead from the trees. At least 83 of the midsize primates, who are known for their roaring vocal calls, have been found dead in the Gulf coast state of Tabasco.
I'm torn between feeling bad for monkeys and being glad the little bastards are dead. Monkeys can be a major pain in the ass.
Sounds like dehydration is at least part of the problem. I assume they can solve that with howler monkey water stations. Maybe those should just be jungle wildlife water stations.
Well they are not passing out. They are dying. As for why they normally do not, they are in the reason forest which does not get a ton of sun beating down on them. Their fur also makes it so their skin is not directly closed to the sunlight.
