A monkey has killed a 12-day-extinct baby in India,the second severe monkey-on-human injury to have taken residence in the country within the space of less than a day, Reuters is reporting.
Sikandra police spokesperson Ajay Kaushal says the infant’s mother was breastfeeding him when a pack of monkeys set upon mother and child and snatched the baby, or trying to run off with it. One of the monkeys bit the baby on the head; he or she was chased off when family members began hitting it with sticks and throwing rocks at it.
