Park Rules
Don't stare the monkeys in the eye: Many monkeys consider this a sign of aggression and may get scared or return the aggression.
Don't touch the monkeys: As the monkeys are wild animals, they may have parasites or illness you could catch, try to avoid touching them at all and if you do touch them wash your hands thoroughly straight away.
Don't feed them outside: This encourages them to misbehave.

Famous quotes containing the words park and/or rules:
“Linnæus, setting out for Lapland, surveys his “comb” and “spare shirt,” “leathern breeches” and “gauze cap to keep off gnats,” with as much complacency as Bonaparte a park of artillery for the Russian campaign. The quiet bravery of the man is admirable.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“However diligent she may be, however dedicated, no mother can escape the larger influences of culture, biology, fate . . . until we can actually live in a society where mothers and children genuinely matter, ours is an essentially powerless responsibility. Mothers carry out most of the work orders, but most of the rules governing our lives are shaped by outside influences.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
