In New Delhi, a good monkey catcher is hard to find - Life in India

The MCD wants monkey responsibilities shifted to the wildlife branch of the Delhi state government.

It has only three monkey catchers on its roster, and upping the price paid per monkey – from $8 to $10 to $15 over the past four years – has made no difference. City spokesman Deep Matheu has explained that religious sentiment keeps some people away from the job, but the main problem? People are scared of monkeys.
