You become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities. Until you’re young enough to enjoy your retirement. You get kicked out because you’re too young, You should die first get it out of the way. The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. Post Edit: I have found the original quote by comedian/actor George Carlin. I’m still not sure about the source but maybe this was discussed on the “Seinfield” too. Predictably, a lot of blogs and joke sites have this thing uploaded. Anyway, I found this thought to be interesting and googled the idea. The gist of that message was that life would have been more fun if it ran backwards … kind of like the video of Enigma’s song which had an unicorn running backwards (maybe it was “Loss of Innocence”). Sometime back I recieved an SMS from a friend. This one is for those “complaining types” who don’t feel that life is giving them a fair deal 😉 The second-time unconscious primate was carried into the cage which cameraman Karam Singh had made his temporary abode. But then slowly it spread out on the floor as the tranquiliser began to take effect. The chimpanzee let out a cry, and moved towards the iron grill of the enclosure we had climbed up. A perfect aim and the dart hit the thigh of the animal. Soon a second tranquiliser shot was ready. Time was short as the effect of the tranquiliser shot was dying. He knew of the danger the chimpanzee could pose to the mediamen. He stood near the chimpanzee which was standing on its two legs with a dazed look. It was a trying time for the zoo director. Two of the cameramen had rushed out and could be seen 200 metres away. Two more journalists followed me up.įrom my high perch I had a clear view of the goings on. I climbed up the enclosure housing the cages at a speed that would have put even the monkeys to shame. Photographer Karam Singh darted into the empty cage, meant for the chimp, and bolted it from inside. He gave a punch on the primate’s face and pulled out his bleeding thumb.Īll hell broke loose as the attendants dropped the animal and ran.Įveryone was for himself. But before he could sound an alert, the chimp dug its teeth into the attendant’s thumb. The attendant holding the right hand of the chimpanzee suddenly noticed a glint in the eyes of the ape. All this time the then zoo director, Dr Vinod Sharma, repeatedly told them to hurry up as he feared the tranquiliser effect may wear off. One of the attendants lowered the animal for a better hold. Six attendants lifted the unconscious chimpanzee. Then it walked unsteadily in the small case before collapsing. It got up and rubbed its eyes, giving a stare at those present. The chimpanzee covered its face with its big palms as cameramen clicked with flash guns.Ī number of zoo attendants were at hand to carry out the operation.Ī tranquiliser shot saw the chimpanzee sit back. The vehicle carrying the ape entered the primate enclosure. T HE Chhat Bir Zoo had just acquired a chimpanzee on a barter basis.Ī number of journalists had gathered to witness “operation chimp” - release of the ape into its new home. I guess I must be having a really big grin while reading this piece. The Tribune carried a hilarious incident of shifting an ape to a zoo as recalled by journalist Donald Banerjee.
