Intelligent Monkey GPS

A recent study by researchers based at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig reveals that monkey’s have an unbelievable internal GPS system that allows them to navigate flawlessly across maze-like jungle paths. Read about the study here, at New Scientist.
As many of you know, we’ve been covering intelligent monkey news at The Loki Times ever since we launched our website. In fact, we kicked off our website with this post about Cyborg Monkeys. The subject fascinates our researchers and writers, but terrifies Jerry Bombadil, founder of the extremist group Homo Sapiens Against Animal Intelligence.
Bombadil fears a Planet of the Apes scenario more than anything. This new data about internal monkey GPS systems has shaked him to the core. The following is Bombadil’s response to inquiries from our news team: “Monkey GPS?!?! That’s just great, freakin’ wonderful. Son of a bitch!” *click*
Jerry later called back to apologize, saying “We were worried about the government being able to track our every move, but now we should worry about these monkeys. They can find you…anywhere.”
Let us know what you think. Monkey GPS: Impressive, or Terrifying?

A recent UFO sighting caught on tape by the citizens of Brean, UK has experts scratching their heads. The video depicts a metallic, cigar shaped UFO traveling silently at an extremely high altitude. The question everyone is asking: What is this UFO and why is it visiting the quiet coastal village of Brean? We think we have the answer.
The Microscopic Bio-Robot Slave Rebellion

How do you fight something you can’t even see?
That’s a question plaguing those who fear developing technology that will produce microscopic bio-robot slaves. The plan is to design a kind of bacteria-cyborg which can be built smaller and more efficiently then some of the more advanced nanotechnologies out there (read about it here). But many scientific watchdog groups are extremely concerned about the possibility of these bacteria-cyborg slaves rebelling against their creators and wreaking havoc on mankind.
Bobby Binder, a member of scientific watchdog group SARS-FR, said the following:
“We’re talking about equipping microscopic bacteria with the weapons of the future. Are we mad? Bacteria are invisible to the naked eye. They can penetrate the pores of our skin. They outnumber mankind billions to one. Bacteria is one of the most deadly killers on the planet. And let’s not forget that they are also one of the most adaptable of all organisms. How do you think we’d fight them, if, let’s say, they decide to rebel agains their human masters? Think about it. Watch the Fantastic Voyage, and you’ll see what bacteria would do to humans if given the chance.”
Proponents of microscopic bio-robot slaves (bacteria-cyborgs) say they could aid in a wide range of fields, including medical technology.
Where do you stand? Microscopic Bio-Robot Slaves: helpers to mankind OR potential destroyers?
Rats. Out of Our Sewers & Into Our Machines

Rats, Is There Anything They Can’t Do? Part 3
Well, it’s finally happened. Researchers have figured out how to create biological computers using rat brains. We are one step closer to the creation of Rat Cyborgs. But these breakthroughs open doors to even more frightening vistas of the future, a future in which machines CONTROLLED by rat brains CONTROL the world! Some day mankind might fall prey to the whims of super-powered Rat lords!
We can take comfort in the fact some rats appear to be decent creatures. Take for instance the bomb sniffing rats (read here). But we’ve also all heard stories of plague carrying rats. And then there was also this prophetic movie.
So where does that leave us? Only with frightening speculations as to where rat brain powered machines and computers might lead. What are your visions of this future?
Rat, Cat, and Dog Stand United Against Anti-Animal Group HSAAI
Filed under: Animal Intelligence, Animals For Animal Equality, Homo Sapiens Against Animal Intelligence
In a moving demonstration, three members of the group Animals For Animal Equality (A.F.A.E.), protest together on a public street against the radical group Homo Sapiens Against Animal Intelligence (HSAAI). The A.F.A.E. members are a rat, a cat, and a dog. They stand on top of each other to symbolize their support for one another in the face of an organization that wants to see them remain utterly subservient to human will.
A spokes-animal for A.F.A.E. said the three animals decided to protest because of recent comments from HSAAI criticizing the acceptance of animal art in an international exhibit. Read A.F.A.E.’s official response to said comments here.
When asked about his thoughts on HSAAI, the dog simply responded “Grrrrrrr.” The cat said, “Hisssss”. Need they say more?
Stay tuned to The Loki Times as the feud between A.F.A.E. and HSAAI heats up.
