Even monkeys in Southeast Asia can be morbidly obese!!! Yes that is his gut touching the ground. When we arrived on the road where this small herd of young marsupials (sic- spelling?) decided to congregate we discovered that not only had we discovered an eager band of monkeys happy to partake of our food.. but they were eager to eat all food. apparently this monkey herd has abandoned it foraging skills to take up tourist operations on the road into the angkor wat temple complex. This guy off hand.. was marked by the Khmer as "Boss Monkey." As soon as we saw him.. all our tuk tuk Khmer drivers.. began pointing at him, saying "He .. Boss Monkey!... He the Boss." Even the Khmer know a Boss Monkey when they see him. Note to Self.. Big Gut = Big "Respect."
