"Mom, the monkey is eating my protein bar!"
Updated | By The Workzone with Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp/Udesha Moodley-Judhoo
A Johannesburg girl swears at a monkey for stealing her cereal bars.

In true South African fashion, our favourite furry troublemakers are at it again – this time with another classic grab-and-run.
The latest monkey mischief happened outside a Johannesburg home, where a young woman named Kiki found herself the unsuspecting victim.
A cheeky monkey slipped into the house and helped itself to her "protein bars". For gym-loving Kiki, this wasn’t just a snack – it was personal.
Turns out, the so-called protein bars were Jungle Oats bars… and honestly, it sounds like a great ad waiting to happen: “Even the monkeys can’t resist the Taste of Goodness.”
Jokes aside, Kiki – a South African living in Bangkok – was back home for a visit. And in a true South African welcome, the local monkeys decided to throw her a party… by raiding her snack stash.

Naturally, people came to the comments to share their own experiences:
"Crying because they once took my KFC."
"He didn't have to take both of them, so greedy."
"They always eat the nice treats in front of us."
"He's looking around like the voice is coming from the heavens."
"Pumping up some energy coming back."
"One tried opening my microwave yesterday."
