Or, yet another example of how wealth destroys everything it touches. Every nice, beautiful, interesting place in the world is being reduced to a form of Disneyland for the rich (rich being a flexible thing, so I imagine the folks on their monk shooting safari above don't think of themselves as being rich, but compared to their prey they certainly are, if only financially. The monks don't exactly look very pleased with their new roles as monkeys in the zoo.
