Only after upper and lower teeth met one another in the midst of the man’s leg, did the animal pull back, bringing a two-inch chunk of leg with him. The primate didn’t release his grip, even when the trainer started stabbing him with the pointed end of his weapon. The primate ground his teeth into the leg, splintering bone. He missed, allowing the baboon to bite his leg just below the knee. As the animal closed in, the man swung his wooden stick with all of his might. After the baboon landed and recovered his senses, he rushed. The break in the action allowed the man to grab a pointed wood bar lying nearby. Displaying the wherewithal of a ninja, the man kicked his opponent under the chin, stunning the animal and sending him flying into the air. The trainer held the primate at arm’s length and dragged it in the direction of a picket fence, where the man hoped to beat the baboon’s “brains out against the pickets.” Before reaching the fence, however, the trainer’s strength gave out and the baboon escaped his grasp. The animal let the girl go, and turned to bite the man choking him. When the trainer arrived, he found the primate shaking the child like “a terrier does a rat.” Reacting quickly, the man snagged the baboon’s neck and squeezed. Rushing to the source of the noise, the man found that a baboon had broken his chain and grabbed a little girl. One day while working in his office, the trainer heard a little girl scream.
