A dozen monkeys have been found dead in a forest in India - with veterinary experts claiming they suffered simultaneous heart attacks after they were scared by a tiger.

Locals discovered the monkeys in a forest clearing and were initially baffled by the apparent mass death.

Suspecting the mammals had been poisoned, postmortems were carried out which reportedly revealed they all had heart attacks at the same time.

Vets in the Kotwali Mohammadi area of the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh carried out investigations.

Vet Dr Sanjeev Kumar said: 'It was confirmed in the post-mortem report that the monkeys died due to cardiac arrest.

The monkeys could have died due to tiger's roar as tigers often traverse that area.'

Forest department workers found the monkeys on Monday and an upsetting video shows them stuffing the bodies in polythene bags.

Villagers reported tigers are often in the area and were heard roaring at the time of the deaths.

The claim of a mass heart attack has been criticised by wildlife experts, however, who suggest the animals were more likely to have died from an infection.

Dr Brijendra Singh, a veterinarian, told the Times of India: 'Monkeys are a wild animal and they don't die in this manner. All the monkeys might have been suffering from some infection that claimed their lives.'

I don't believe their conclusion

Well maybe further forensic research should be carried out on the strange death of the twelve monkeys

The tiger should feast on the them before they eventually died nah

lol.......RIP to the dead monkeys.

too much of Osun weed

How can a monkey have heart attack I don't believe it jare

Queenbeee:
How can a monkey have heart attack I don't believe it jare

Monkeys are primates like humans besides that they are also mammals and many mammals are known to have heart attacks... dont come and be falling hands on a public forum

And fyi i think the story is fake tho not the heart attack part but the tiger part

Monkeys dieing of heart attack is not strange, because shocks, fear are some or few of the things that causes heart attack.

Even plenty of humans that die all of a sudden die of heart attacks which are undetected because of lack of health exposure plus lack of postmortem tests, but when such sudden deaths happen, we blame that imaginary uncle or relative in the village who killed them using witchcraft..

Na today Dem start to de hear tiger and lion roar?? Unless say Dem b ajebo monkey...besides , the cant all have heart attack simultaneously on the same spot...i suspect those aliens from outer space...they came to earth used them for some sort of experimental research and staged the heart attack condition on them and fled...

I douth that. Something is amiss.

How do you expect a smart chap like me to believe this Poo

Monkey died, they carried out research to know the cause of the death. These ppl must be backward.

They should come to nairaland and see how lalala will rush the picture or video of a hunter who made pepper soup with the monkey he killed in his farm to the front page.

Better still, they should come and see how soldiers and police who are supposed to protect lives of human beings, slaughter them without any reasonable reasons why they killed them.

What of during campaign that a politician will refer to the populace of human origin as blood of baboons and dogs that will shed if he fails to win an election

I pray Nigeria Sinks..

Nobody should ban me or you will be banned by God who sent me

Funny, I do see how them tricking or tempting lions on Natgeowide channel. Saw some fighting for territory on the ground without minding the coming predator until it was very near. They must be old monkeys suffering from high blood pressure then

Jokers

They looked for the wrong poison.

:omonkeys also have heart attack :omonkeys also have heart attack

Can't be a tigers roar. They've been living in d same forest since birth and must hv been repeatedly threatened by Tigers in previous times. How come all of them just died at once. The researchers explanation is too simplistic and unrealistic.

Monkeys are primates like humans besides that they are also mammals and many mammals are known to have heart attacks.
