Small town residents unite to fight a common enemy: A huge monkey farm
msn.com
Local officials in Bainbridge, Georgia, a rural outpost 20 miles north of the Florida Panhandle, recently approved a startup’s plan to build one of the largest monkey breeding facilities in the nation. At its capacity, the $396 million complex would hold up to 30,000 monkeys – double the city’s human population.
I went into the article hoping most of the arguments against the facility would be because we shouldn't throw heaps of dead monkeys at science, but it seems that the bulk of them are just garden-variety NIMBY / "oh, no, my property values" complaints.
No Monkey in My Back Yard.
😂
I mean... its the South...
I went into the article expecting a war between humans and a farm of monkeys that went rogue
😮💨
Not the apocalypse movie inciting incident I had in mind for this season but I'll take it.
1.) Virus breeding ground, something makes the leap to humans, we find out whether lessons have been learned from C19.
2.) Above scenario with a zombie twist.
3.) Mass escape leads to 30,000 (and counting) ravenous monkeys roaming the countryside where they gain a taste for human flesh.
4.) A few breeding pairs get out and, several monkey generations later, the troop has taken Georgia and parts of Florida. Human residents experience competent governance for the first time in recent memory.
Place your bets.
