Naughty holy monkeys (I)

Many animals are considered holy creatures in India. Also monkeys are. Hanuman, who is one of the Hindu gods, is a monkey-headed figure and because of that Hindus treated monkeys as holy animals. You can see them in many cities and towns, wandering in the streets or jumping on the trees, the electricity cables or the balconies. There are two kinds of them: the “macacus”, the ones you can see in most of the places, and the “langurs”, the ones with a long tail and a black face. To see them jumping on the trees is quite funny but when they approach to you it is not so pleasant. Even being holy, I don’t like them.
