When the Mod Monkey has your ear

[Fire-medic]

Something to consider when the Mod Monkey yells into your ear:

Beware loud-mouthed guys: Monkeys with smaller testicles roar the loudest to make up for their shortcomings when attracting females

• Howler monkeys are among the loudest terrestrial animals on the planet
• Males with larger throats tend to have smaller testes, study reveals
• Attract females with their roar, while those with larger testes share mates
• Research is the first evidence in any species of a trade-off between vocal investment and sperm production, University of Cambridge experts say

Howlers, which live in the forests of Central and South America have long interested humans - from ancient Mayans to modern primatologists - and their cries can travel as far as three miles (5km) through dense rainforest.

Interesting.
I've always equated young fellas with trunk-fulls of boomboxes in their cars, tooling around residential neighborhoods @130Db, as the modern day equivalent of a primal mating call.
cheers!
