you must be in Natal somewhere? Agreed, it is the same with all wildlife and forest, the human virus takes and takes, destroys and gives nothing back.
My grandfather built his house in Chakas Rock, back when his was one of about 10 properties being developed back then ('80s)
Being a farmer his whole adult life, he had no patience for vervet monkeys...
He had pawpaw trees in his garden in Chakas Rock, and one day he saw a couple of vervets picking the fruit. He stormed off, got his double barrelled shot gun from the safe and shot them dead!!
I was shocked, my gran almost had a heart attack and the builders on the plot next door had monkey for dinner.
