re: Animal Talk with Pecker - The Mandrill

Zoo Atlanta has a few. I saw one acting all bat shite crazy running around and acting a fool. I was standing on the overhead boardwalk in the tree canopy and for some reason it set me off. The other 3 were chill but this one was ruining the vibe for everyone including the other Mandrils. I screamed at the top of my lungs "STOP IT" followed by a roar so hard I made myself hoarse. It looked at me and hauled arse to a pole about 30 feet out into the habitat and climbed it to eye level with me like it was some kind of bad arse. It just sat there for about 5 minutes and stared at me as I stared back. It became like a staring contest. I said "what choo gonna do? Huh? HUH?" Several times and then it just slowly descended back down the pole. One of the other Mandrills snuck up behind it and pushed it to the ground and hauled arse to the other side of the habitat. I laughed my arse off at it and yelled "you got punked bitch!" Then I got a Nathan's hot dog and left the zoo.
