Question from a reader:
I am sure many living at the various Heights in Subic have the same problem as we have.
This morning a metal screen on the patio door was 'smashed' by the MONKEYS, it was scratched and destroyed.
Increasingly they are causing more and more damage.
Folks are saying that if they leave a window open the monkeys get into the house and cause huge damage, disruption and smash bottles to get at their contents.
Increasingly they are aggressive, they stare at you from a short distance and show their teeth menacingly.
This must frighten children.
My questions are.
1. What are other peoples experiences.
2. What is the position SBMA take regarding the monkeys
3. I understand the monkeys are protected by SBMA.
4. Are there any circumstances where a CULL could be arranged by SBMA and would they carry this out.
Typically SBMA wont do anything but say, well the monkey were here first and we are in their home. However, in most cases when bad behavior is experienced by the monkeys there is a ring leader, once he is removed they all move on, which has on occasions forced residents to take their own course of action to resolve the problem.
For residents inside Subic Bay Freeport there is a Facebook group that was started by Kalayaan Resident JC Delos Reyes to discuss issues like this here is the link http://www.facebook.com/SubicBayResidents
