Angry monkeys have gone on the warpath against dogs in Maharashtra’s Beed district, killing around 250 puppies in a series of bizarre incidents over the last month.</p>
<p>
The monkeys are reported to be striking back with a vengeance after a pack of dogs killed a baby monkey in Majalgaon village.</p>
<p>
In retaliation, the monkeys were reportedly seen dragging puppies onto rooftops and trees and flinging them down from a height and killing them.</p>
<p>
The monkeys are reported to have got more aggressive and attacked schoolchildren as well. In one instance an 8-year-old boy was being dragged by a group of monkeys and had to be rescued by villagers who pelted stones to drive them away.</p>

After this incident, forest department officials along with the local police are reported to have intervened and captured some of the monkeys.</p>
