PETA wants investigation of Dez Bryant’s “possibly illegal possession” of a monkey

Just when you thought you’ve seen it all, along comes a call for an investigation into Dez Bryant’s monkey.

Bryant posted a picture of himself with a tiny capuchin monkey that he called “Dallas Bryant” and his new best friend in the photo’s caption. That caught the eye of animal rights groups, who spoke to TMZ Sports to say that it was “completely irresponsible” to have such an animal as a pet and that Bryant “will live to regret it.”

There’s no confirmation that Bryant is keeping the animal as a pet (although he wouldn’t be the first Cowboy wideout to do so), but now PETA has also waded into the story. Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the organization has asked Desoto, Texas Animal Control to look into Bryant’s “possibly illegal possession” of a monkey.

“Monkeys belong in the wild — not [for] football players who acquire exotic animals just to make a splash on Instagram,” Brittany Peet of PETA said.

We’ll see how things play out for little Dallas Bryant, but hopefully we’ll get to the really important business and find out if he thinks Dez caught the ball in Green Bay last season.

Thank you NFL media, et al, for devolving the greatest game on the planet into an over saturated, Skankdashian reality circus. Mark Cuban is right, the hog is ready for slaughter…….
--------
I side with PETA. Bryant can hardly look out for himself let alone another creature. However maybe the monkey will be a mentor to him

PETA – People Eating Tasty Animals

Leave the guy alone. Everybody’s got something to hide except for Dez Bryant and his monkey.
--------
That monkey would get better care than the goldfish in Frenchy Fuqua’s plexiglass high heeled shoes got.
-------
Anyone with “illegal possession of a monkey” on their rap sheet has my respect.
-------
PETA are quite possibly the worst human beings on the planet

As far as the monkey, I don’t like the name at all. I’ve always felt a pet monkey should be named Booker (and he should be dressed in the same, smaller version, clothes as the owner) but that’s just me. But besides that, points for Dez!

Monkeys are better off in the wild? They're being caught and eaten for food in the wild. I see no hope for them or most other wild animals who live in the wild.

Monkeys are so cool... plus, they're cute as hell when they're still babies.

They are a lot to deal with as a pet though. Last month here in central FL there were 2 monkeys who escaped from their homes... they weren't from the same homes either. One of them ripped up parts of a police car while they were waiting on the owner to show up,,, the other one is still on the loose.

I always wanted a monkey as a pet when I was a kid. Back in the old days we had Show N Tell days at school. I'll never forget the day one of my classmates brought in his pet monkey. He took the monkey out of it's carrier and that thing went ape shit. No, it didn't shit everywhere... it was worse. It jumped up on the shoulder of a girl in class and proceeded to masterbate all over her hair and face. Just so unbelievable to watch that as a kid. Hahahaha That ended my desire to have a pet monkey.

I want a miniature elephant. You know, about the size of a medium sized dog. 50 lbs or so.This way when i have guests over i can take pics of their facial reactions when he walks into the living room.

 

[Memento]

No. I'm not with PETA at all, but that's a wild animal. Wild animals should not be allowed as pets EVER. It NEVER turns out well. Let it get eaten out in the wild, let it live in the wild, I don't care, but you don't keep it as a pet.

I fucking love wolves, have a tattoo of one, and want to get another one on the same arm, but that doesn't mean that I keep one as a pet.

 

[DenverRam]

please. monkeys are pets in every third world country.

Cool, now I want one too. A pink one :yess:

PETA can go fuck themselves. They have no proof it's illegal.

[Dodgersrf]

People seem to forget that these are wild animals and will fuck you up if they get pissed.

That monkey is cute,though.

We had a spider monkey when I was a kid. That monkey used to sit on my head and pull my hair.:shocked:

In Connecticut a pet ape ripped it's owners face off a few years ago

The images are horrifying. She had surgery recently.

Actually, it was a chimpanzee, which are the most evil animals in all of existence, and it ripped off the owner's friend's face. Took a bunch of shots from the police to take the fucker down.

I'll be honest. I love most animals. I don't love primates with one exception. Primates - the one exception aside - are ruthless, intelligent, aggressive, and powerful. Chimpanzees are six times stronger than we are upper body-wise. They are known to murder human children; that's why noted chimpanzee researcher Jane Goodell had to keep her own son locked away from them for his own protection while she did her research. They will fight other chimpanzees for no reason at all, and they will murder young chimpanzees on a whim. They are disgusting creatures, and there's no wonder that they are the evilest of all animals, given that they are the closest DNA-wise to us.

The one exception? Gorillas. They are intelligent, yes, but they are the most gentle giants you will ever see. They never harm young animals of any kind; I've seen multiple cases where human children have fallen into gorilla pens in zoos, still alive, and the gorillas will protect them. The only time you will ever see them fight is during cases of territorial disputes, but even then, you'll never see them harm the young gorillas.

PETA can go freak themselves. They have no proof it's illegal.

I had one a couple of weekends ago. Don't know what happened to it. It was gone once I woke up on the front lawn.
