What can you say about Baler movie?
Baler is primarily a love story between Feliza, the daughter of a rebel commander (Anne Curtis), and Celso, a half-Spanish soldier (Jericho Rosales), set at the twilight years of the Spanish regime in the Philippines. The young couple struggle to keep their forbidden love alive despite familial and political tensions culminating in an almost yearlong blockade known as the Siege of Baler. "Love is difficult in times of war," says a Filipino soldier named Lope (Mark Bautista) who is also serving the Spanish army just like Celso. His statement perfectly encapsulates the movie's theme. Complementing the primary conflict of Anne and Jericho's relationship is a backdrop of clashes between father and son, mother and daughter, duty to family and country, and loyalty and self-preservation. Throughout the movie, Baler explores the question of whether love-be it romantic, familial, or patriotic-can survive the most brutal of human endeavors: war.
Is it illegal to own a monkey in Canada?
Yes. Owning a wallaby is completely illegal. Regardless of local laws in North America, it is actually illegal to own a wallaby anywhere. Many people do not realise this, especially when irresponsible websites advocate ownership of pet wallabies.
The Australian government has only permitted the export of kangaroos and wallabies overseas for non-commercial purposes. This means that smaller, private zoos have been permitted to have them. Unfortunately, this has resulted in numerous kangaroos and wallabies escaping from their enclosures (due to mismanagement and lack of understanding of the animals' needs), causing the development of feral populations overseas.
Despite permitting the export of these animals, this still does not mean that kangaroos or wallabies may be kept as pets. Anyone who sells kangaroos or wallabies overseas is, in effect, flouting Australian law by exploiting them for commercial purposes.

Another answer:
No one knows for sure
Louis on 26 July 2010: indeed, no one knows for sure, but there is good reasoning behind thinking that language developed only about 13000 years ago. Although people communicated before, like all animals do, they would also have been using sounds like singing and gestures and even drawings and carving. The the cro-magnons made cave paintings 80.000 years ago. But they were unlikely to have had anything like structured language. It was only when humans settled down from being hunters gatherers into agricultural communities that language developed. There is an excellent book pulling the facts together on this by Rik Smits, unfortunately it seems to be available in Dutch only.

The full weight of the Type 99KM is a hefty weight of 75 Tons, with precision missiles and the barrel can also fire kinetic-energy-armor-piercing shells.What do you mean by old world and new world?
Today people do not usually use the terms "old and new worlds" but when the were used in the 17 and 18 centries the new world would be the recently discovered North America. No one ever actually used the term "old world" but that would have reffered to all lands before the discovery of the Americas. So you would be talking about Europe, Eastern Europe, and all of Asia.

Why do Hindus think monkeys are sacred?
When Lord Rama fought with the Ravana, the king of Lanka, he did not have his own army and was helped by 'Vanaras' (monkeys or it could be aboriginal tribes who painted themselves like monkeys, 'vanara' literally means people of the forests) and 'rikshas' (bears or it could be aboriginal tribes who painted themselves like bears). Lord Krishna is supposed to have married the daughter of the king Jambavanta of 'rikshas', Jambawanti. Later, in mythology, these became monkeys and bears, and hindus started worshiping Hanuman, a 'vanara' devotee of Lord Rama as the perfect devotee. Therefore, hindus feed monkeys and never think of killing one.
How does a monkey defend itself?
Orangutans are able to protect themselves because they live high in trees where animals are not able to get to them. Another way they protect themselves is physical defense and evasive tactics.

Can you legally own a monkey in AZ?
Legally, I'm not sure, but trust me, you do notwant a monkey as a pet. My aunt and cousin are zookeepers and work with monkeys, and they scent everything (the monkeys). They grind their feces in their hands and rub it on as much as possible. You, your clothes, furniture, kitchen counter...you get the idea. Also, don't get one thinking that if it gets to be too much, you can take it to the zoo because they cannot legally take it. Nor do they want to because it could hurt the other animals in that exhibit or spread disease. You also can't tame them or train them not to smear feces all over everything. It's instinct, part of being a wild animal.
I hear chinchillas make good pets though if you want a more unusual pet, and those you can get at a pet store. And in Russia they've domesticated silver foxes (but you have to be really careful not to order from the wrong place because right now there is only one farm that breeds domesticated ones and they don't have permits to sell yet so you would have to wait another year or longer. A fox raised in a house and bottle fed by a human is not the same as being domesticated.) It was a National Geographic article in case you want to research it.
Are cappuchin monkeys legal in UK?
Most Monkey species need a Dangerous wild animal license to own, the capuchin included. a license can only be granted by your local authority and the minimum age is 18. some species do not need a license, but there needs still have to be legal meet under the animal welfare act.
monkeys are not pets, they are intelligent, unpredictable and social (most species) animals and are difficult and expensive to look after. unless you can keep them in top quality zoo conditions, including indoor and outdoor enclosures, enclosure designs, maintaining and controlling social groups, nutrition, evacuation procedures in emergencies, procedures in case of escape, ext, then you shouldn't own one.

Since a marriage license is a legal document, the only beings who can sign are beings who are able to understand what they are signing.
However, in some places marriages do not require legal documentation. For example, in India, it is evidently permissible to marry a snake:
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/1609295.cms
"A woman, who claimed to have fallen in love with a snake got married to the reptile as per Hindu rituals at Atala village of Orissa's Khurda district."
Since a monkey is more primatal than a snake, it is likely that it is allowed.
Is a monkey important to its ecosystem?
Chimpanzees are important to the ecosystem, but if you are using this information for a school project or something, I would suggest using a frog instead on a chimpanzee because they are more important in the ecosystem. Hope this helps!
Which monkey hasn't got a tail?
Actually some people are born with "monkey tails". One of the most striking is the existence of the rare "true human tail" (also variously known as "coccygeal process," "coccygeal projection," "caudal appendage," and "vestigial tail"). More than 100 cases of human tails have been reported in the medical literature. The true human tail is characterized by a complex arrangement of adipose and connective tissue, central bundles of longitudinally arranged striated muscle in the core, blood vessels, nerve fibers, nerve ganglion cells, and specialized pressure sensing nerve organs (Vater-Pacini corpuscles). It is covered by normal skin, replete with hair follicles, sweat glands, and sebaceous glands. True human tails range in length from about one inch to over 5 inches long (on a newborn baby), and they can move and contract. Although human tails usually lack skeletal structures several human tails have also been found with cartilage and up to five, well-developed, articulating vertebrae.Baruchin et al. 1983; Dao and Netsky 1984; Lundberg et al. 1962)
