3,000 attend monkey wedding
March 01, 2008
IT was an elaborate Hindu wedding filled with colour, a beautiful 5-metre long sari, fireworks and dancing. 
Picture: AFP
But it didn't involve humans.
It was a marriage between two monkeys in the state of Orissa, in eastern India. Andsome 3,000 villagers went to witness it, reported CNN-IBN and BBC.
The guests were served a feast of rice, lentils, fish, vegetable and sweets.
The two families that took in and 'married' off the two monkeys last Thursday say they loved them as pets.
The monkeys, who were kept in chains before the marriage, have now been released by their owners.
The male monkey, Manu, was found in a mango orchard in a neighbouring village by a couple who raised it as their pet. And his bride, Jhumuri, was found in a village temple.
They have since been spotted hanging out at the temple where their marriage took place.
Local villager Mitrabhanu Dutta said the event was a 'nice way to release the monkeys from captivity'. http://newpaper.asia1.com.sg/news/st...57814,00.html?  To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
