Due to unrelenting nagging from Miko and yet another court-ordered mandate to perform some sort of public service to pay back society for our "offensive" presence, we have established The Primate Times.

T.P.T. chronicles the latest news of our closest relatives, the so-called "lower" primates. Stories hilighted here will be mainly of a "behavioral" nature so that you human animals can base your own actions on what they do (or at least find some sort of justification for your past social faux pas in order to suppress any guilt/shame feelings you may have.)

This page has passed muster with the court since much of contemporary secular psychology is based on primate studies and evolutionary theory. Miko also approves since it brings his kind to the forefront of human consciousness (and is also one more step towards his goal which reflects past lower primate glory - WORLD DOMINATION.)

Be sure to check back often as new stories will be added periodically and placed at the top of the list.
