A Howl Lot of Trouble

at

‘sup?

This morning.

Phoenix Park, Dublin.

Via Dublin Zoo

Dublin Zoo is delighted to welcome two Venezuelan red howler monkeys, the newest species to arrive to the South American House.

The two male red howler monkeys, both aged five, arrived from Tierpark Berlin and are settling into their new habitat very well. They also have a long prehensile tail which acts as a fifth hand to help them grip onto branches when climbing through trees.

They get the name ‘howler monkey’ from their roaring and howling calls, which can be heard up to 5km away.

      I live a few doors up from a family of howlers, they have a new Bounce House for the little howlers, it’s . . eh . . wonderful, I don’t want to kill them at all.

      When I was a kid I got to go on a Bouncy Castle maybe once a year, the novelty value was enormous, the howlers had theirs going at 8am this morning!

        ouch, I lived above a four generation family of the antichrist himself for a year, the children were actual demons and the whole lot of them screamed like stuck pigs as a tag team. People are hell.

      The death has occurred of James “Howler” Howlin, suddenly in a hail of bullets, sadly missed by his loving partner Ayesha and son Lord Arson Havoc, etc etc
