I remember, as a kid, watching a coach in front being stripped of all its chrome detailing by monkeys at Longleat --- the driver was not amused! The passengers started to panic a little when the animals had a go at the skylight vents. Luckily they didn't manage to get in!!!

I went in a safari park in Germany with my old opel Ascona, Never again the Bloody Baboons made more Damage to it than the wife does. they riped out both windscreen washer jets and hose, bent both windscreen wipers, riped out my elec. antenna, nackerd a mirrow and started to pull the windscreen seel out. as I got out where they were I could put my hand through the front top side of the screen. as I told the park attendant what was wrong and that my car parts are still in there all he said was " dont worry they wont hurt themselfes on anything".
Never again will i go in a safari in my own car.
