Hi Bush baby,
Could you please clarify - when you said 'Macas' as a food source to entice the hairy ones, were you referring to McDonalds or was it a typo for Marcus?

Bloody hell, are you trying to kill them with artheriosclerosis LOL! I'm pretty sure you're kidding, but bear in mind, apparently the Big Hairy Ones like the smell of bacon or meat cooking - not too sure if Hot'n'Spicy or a Big Mac Double HeartAttack burger would have the same effect!
Why not try some sardines or something similar - at least that smell is natural and we all know fish smell really sticks around - perhaps fry up some mullet or something?
Kind regards,
Shazz

It would make sense being a primate and given the conditions of the country it lives in, that it would be omnivorious..
Meat if it can get it..Vegetables, roots and seeds when it can't..
