Witchcraft, says baby's mom
08/06/2003 09:03  - (SA)  
Dan Dhlamini

Johannesburg - A young mother watched helplessly as a baboon snatched and ripped open the skull of her only child and ate his brain. She believes the rare incident must be related to witchcraft.

Lettie Goitsimang Tukane, 34, told City Press the baboon sank its powerful canines into the skull of her three-month-old son, removed the brain, climbed up a telephone pole and ate the brain before fleeing into nearby bushes.

The bizarre and tragic incident occurred at a cattle post in the remote North West village of Madipelesa outside Pampierstad, where Tukane and fiancé Oupa Goeiman live.

Tukane said her son Neo was sleeping in a bed in one of the rooms while she was busy washing dishes in another room when she heard his screams.


Whoah.

Yeah, but humans eat monkey brains. Why should we think we're the only ape that eats primate brains?

Dead baby jokes are declared A-OK by me. As are Matrix jokes.

Poor woman, to lose a baby like that. I mean, most people fear their kid dies from disease or an accident, bit to be eaten (if only part)? That has to be worse of all.

This is going to shock some libertarians, but that baby had no job. Everyone who think that this should have been prevented want a paternalistic state to make sweet, sweet love to their anus. Freedom means never having to say "help"!

It's a sad story ... at the very least, that baboon should be hunted down and blown apart, preferably in front of any "family" it may have. That will scare the hell out them and maybe keep them away from humans in the future, thus preventing any further tragedies.
