How come there are no test monkeys caged or running loose in the labs! Add some chimpanzees, macaques… and whathaveyous.

Loose monkeys should travel about in the lab and occasionally activate or relocate loose items, fiddle with console keyboards (thus activating security systems or lockouts), eat whatever meds they come across, and just generally get into trouble. Some monkeys should be friendly, some aggressive, some panicked.

i dont think you guys realize how dangerous a chimpamzee is.

a chimp will absolutely wreck a zed in combat. hands down, finger bit off.

they would likely own skitterbots too, with experience

Is this supposed to make me want them more?

Because it makes me want them more.

Tree climbing monkey mutation branches too, and Rage Monkeys fits perfectly as a 28 days later reference.
