A very angry macaque monkey on a motorcycle tried to steal a human child in Jakarta

I don't know anything about the context here except that Topeng Monyet - forcing macaques to wear human clothes and ride bicycles for entertainment - is a somewhat-common practice in Jakarta that's also (understandably) frowned upon by the animal rights community.

When I frame it that way, I can kind of understand why this badass monkey is so pissed.

(Just a heads-up: it's a strong, scary monkey going after a kid.)

As of this writing, this video has nearly 11 million views, because it's just so WTF.
