Video footage shows a baby howler monkey clinging onto a young adult male capuchin monkey on Jicarón Island, Panama. Scientists have spotted surprising evidence of what they describe as monkey kidnappings while reviewing video footage from the small island. Capuchin monkeys were seen carrying at least 11 howler babies between 2022 and 2023 – but no one is sure why they do it.

On an island in Panama, a fad that one researcher called "viscerally disturbing" has recently taken off among a group of young male monkeys. These adolescents and juveniles have started to kidnap the infants of another monkey species, seemingly just for kicks. That's what scientists think after watching a bunch of male white-faced capuchin monkeys walking around with baby howler monkeys clinging to their backs. @npr reports:

No doubt this has been posted already, but it’s still amazing. We should treat animals with a lot more respect I think…

Gelada #monkeys understand complex "conversations" involving distress calls and prosocial comforting responses, exhibiting surprise when such vocal exchanges are manipulated to violate their expectations
