A macaque monkey in Karnataka state is on a vendetta against one villager, according to News18.

The victim, Jagadish, described how the terrorist primate bit his hand as he assisted forest officers in catching the loose animal, who had been stealing and threatening children.

After a three-hour operation, with the monkey finally secured, officials dropped him off in a forest 14 miles away.
