THE MAN AND THE CHIMP

There is no doubt about the fact that as it is with man so it is with the animals. Emotions easily trigerred and violence errupts and the end result is that someone gets hurt. While a journalist was hurling his shoe at President Bush in Baghdad in Iraq, a chimp by name Babu in an Indian zoo was hurling stones at visitors that were trying to draw its attention. In the processs a female chimp by name Mithu Mondal and her daughter Nikita were wounded. Definitely the stones being hurled by Babu missed its target. The two victims have been rushed to the hospital.
We should ask the question why is it that in times of war or violence the women and children are always the primary victims. There is no doubt about it that our's is the animal kingdom and man is the animal and we are the source of every violent situation in the world. Violence is contagious hence it has spread even to every sphere of life in our planet.
