Summary

CrimeLess – BONUS: The World's Most Dangerous Monkeys

Podcast: CrimeLess
Hosts: Rory Scovel, Josh Dean
Date: January 24, 2026
Episode Type: Bonus Mini-Episode

---

Overview

This bonus episode of CrimeLess is a comedic, fast-paced rundown of the “world’s most dangerous monkeys,” inspired by the hosts’ amusement and curiosity during previous monkey-related segments. Comedian Rory Scovel leads with a tongue-in-cheek countdown, joined by producer Lane Rose and co-host/journalist Josh Dean, blending genuine animal facts with irreverent banter. The trio rate 11 monkey species for their “danger,” focusing just as much on their wild looks and outlandish behaviors as on actual threats to humans. The tone is rowdy, light-hearted, and educational (sort of).

Key Discussion Points & Insights

Introduction: Why a Top 11 List?

• Rory explains the episode is bonus content, “an utterly subjective list of the world’s 11 most dangerous types of monkeys” – mainly because they found monkeys too funny not to revisit ([02:37]).
• They acknowledge the visual limitations for listeners and plug their Instagram (@crimelesspod) for accompanying monkey images.

Quote:

“So here. Drumroll please. Is an utterly subjective list of the world’s 11 most dangerous types of monkeys. You have been warned. Head on a swivel. Stay frosty out there, people.” – Rory Scovel ([02:50])

The List: World’s 11 Most Dangerous Monkeys

11. Bald Uacari

• Description: “Vulnerable species native to the Amazon jungles of Peru and western Brazil.”
• Why Dangerous: Basically just shockingly ugly; its bright red, hairless face startles people.
• Lane: “Its superpower is being ugly, huh?” ([05:29])
• Josh: “It looks like a burn victim.” ([05:51])
• Insight: Actually docile; not a true danger, but an appearance-based “danger.”

10. Japanese Macaque (Snow Monkey)

• Behavior: Famous for hot springs, but occasionally attacks humans when provoked or crowded; Yamaguchi city suffered a “troop” rampage in 2022, including home invasions and attempted baby-snatching ([06:27]).
• Lane: “You encroached on their land. This is warfare, right? They just want to live in the hot springs.” ([07:15])
• Insight: Human encroachment leads to monkey violence.

9. Capuchin Monkey

• Behavior: Known for being smart and mischievous; pet ones often bite or scratch owners after sexual maturity ([07:41]).
• Rory: “Not strong enough to tear the skin away from your face. Its teeth and bite are sharp and powerful enough to take off a finger.” ([08:37])
• Lane: “I’m willing to lose a finger if I get to keep all my epidermis.” ([08:44])
• Theme: Many monkeys only become dangerous when humans try to domesticate them.

8. Spider Monkey

• Behavior: Generally kind in the wild; kept as pets, can become extremely violent, even attempting to choke handlers ([08:52]).
• Lane: “Even those (stuffed animals with Velcro arms) can become violent.” ([09:30])

7. Rhesus Macaque

• Behavior: Aggressive when cornered, invasive in Florida, and known carriers of a fatal strain of herpes ([10:02]).
• Josh: “Checks out.” ([10:02])
• Lane: “All right.” ([10:05])
• Insight: Disease transmission puts humans at risk.

6. Howler Monkey

• Behavior: Not physically aggressive, but extremely loud; can spread zoonotic malaria through indirect contact, mostly affecting “middle aged men who enjoyed spending time wandering in the forest.” ([10:41])
• Rory: “Probably most diseases that came from the wild were initially spread by some middle aged white man who wandered into the forest.” ([10:59])

5. Gelada

• Description: “Very cool looking monkey,” huge fangs despite a vegetarian diet ([11:16]).
• Lane: “Ugh, what a great name.” ([11:32])
• Josh: “They look kind of gelada. Chesty.” ([11:34])
• Rory: “Cool as hell, right?” ([11:41])
• Insight: Formidable appearance, gentle habits.

4. Crab-Eating Macaque

• Behavior: Petty thieves, use stolen items to ransom food, can get violent if not appeased; another invasive, herpes-carrying species in Florida ([12:06]).
• Lane: “The macaque does not appreciate a seafood medley. It specifically wants crab.” ([12:36])
• Group jokes about the suspicious frequency of Florida’s herpes-monkey invasions.

3. Baboons

• Behavior: “Potential” to kill humans, though no confirmed cases; do attack crops and sometimes eat sheep ([13:13]).
• Lane: “We’ve all got sheep skeletons in the closet, okay?” ([13:29])
• Insight: High potential for aggression, but focus is on livestock predation.

2. Mandrill

• Behavior: Largest monkeys; up to 120 pounds, live in groups up to a thousand. “Certainly capable of taking on a fully grown human and tearing them to shreds” if provoked ([13:57]).
• Josh: “I think this is Rafiki from Lion King.” ([13:53])
• Rory: “Imagine a thousand 120 pound ripped monkeys.” ([14:53])
• Lane: “These obviously were the monkeys where they were trying out the makeup.” ([14:28])
• Memorable: The highest fury/size combo.

1. Slow Loris

• Danger: The “only venomous primate,” so cute it’s deceptive, but its bite can “rot and melt flesh away,” cause anaphylactic shock, and pierce bone ([15:38]).
• Lane: “That’s the equivalent of finding out about flying spiders. Venomous monkeys.” ([15:16])
• Rory: “What an incredible like, nature made them so cute and so deadly.” ([16:09])
• Lane: “It looks like a Mogwai from Gremlins.” ([15:57])
• Insight: Danger hiding in plain sight.

[Rory Scovel]

Hello and welcome to a very special bonus edition of Crimeless, a mini episode if you will. We had so much fun with the rampaging monkeys that I got curious and made a little list of the world's most dangerous monkeys that we ultimately didn't have time for in the show. But it made us laugh and seemed too fun not to share. So I Present it to you, Crimeless Nation, as special bonus content. Our first ever special bonus content. So here. Drumroll, please. Is an utterly subjective list of the world's 11 most dangerous types of monkeys. You have been warned. Head on a swivel. Stay frosty out there, people. We'll see you next week. Oh, wait, hold that drumroll for a second. If you find yourself feeling left out when we are giggling about monkey butts or other obviously visual things that you can't see, because this is a podcast, I'm here to help. The monkeys mentioned here in our special bonus content will all be posted on our Instagram. So rush on over to crimelesspod on Insta and see those monkey butts for yourself.

[Lane Rose]

You have a list of the top

[Rory Scovel]

11 monkeys, most dangerous monkeys.

[Lane Rose]

Okay, because I was like, you can't have some obscure list. I am say top 11. Josh, you don't decide.

[Rory Scovel]

I would ask you to rank the monkeys. Rory, put them in order. You have three minutes to prepare your answer. I could ask you to name 11 types of monkey and see if you can get there.

[Lane Rose]

I could. There's no world where I could name 11 types of monkeys.

[Rory Scovel]

All right, so this week's top 10 list is top 11. It's a completely subjective list of the worst kinds of monkeys. I clicked on a site called Outdoor Guide, which seems to be a site for enjoying the outdoors, which I guess this is helpful content for people who recreate in monkey ridden areas, which is 11 types of monkeys ranked by danger level. Okay. A writer named Brian Cashman. All right, we're going in reverse order. We're gonna start immediately with one that you definitely have not heard of.

[Lane Rose]

Great.

[Rory Scovel]

The bald uacari. It's a vulnerable species native to the Amazon jungles of Peru and western Brazil. It's not what you think of when you think of a monkey. This is what the writer Ryan Cashman said. What does that mean? So this thing is really ugly, and I quote, with a bright red, hairless face. The sight of one of these monkeys can easily shock those who are not prepared for it. It's this surprise factor that can make the bald uakari seem more dangerous than it actually is.

[Josh Dean]

Oh. Oh, yeah, that's scary.

[Lane Rose]

It's superpowers being ugly, huh?

[Rory Scovel]

Should we go? We should probably show them to Rory as we go. Rory, here you go. All right.

[Lane Rose]

Jesus Christ. Oh, my God. Guys, you can't just do that. Wow.

[Rory Scovel]

Wow.

[Lane Rose]

With human eyes and everything.

[Josh Dean]

It looks like a burn victim.

[Rory Scovel]

Just.

[Lane Rose]

Good Lord.

[Rory Scovel]

All right, well, that's just number 11. Stay tuned.

[Lane Rose]

But.

[Rory Scovel]

But for the record, it's actually a very shy and docile monkey. It's just terrifying. So that's the. That's what makes it dangerous.

[Lane Rose]

That is so ugly. It's just ugly. And that's. It's ugly, therefore it's dangerous.

[Rory Scovel]

I think we can all agree number 10 is a cousin of a monkey. You'll recognize the Japanese macaque. It's AKA the Japanese snow monkey, known for enjoying hot springs. I bet you've seen those pictures of the monkeys chilling. Found on almost every island in Japan, it's one of the more sizable populations on this list. Lives in troops, not gangs of up to 140 members, which feels extremely specific to me. How they landed on. Why 140. Like, wow, was that natural selection? The 150 was too many. 130, not enough. Yeah, they used to be pretty harmless. Okay, this will sound familiar to you. Then humans encroached on their land. And then we have the cautionary tale of the city of Yamaguchi, where, According to the UK's Independent, the city was beset by a large troop, not gang. Of incredibly violent Snow Monkeys. For three weeks in 2022, 58 people reported being attacked. There were stories of monkeys biting and punching people breaking into homes, attacking school children, even attempting to steal babies.

[Lane Rose]

Yeah, I mean, look that you. You encroached on their land. This is warfare, right? Look at. They just want to live in the hot springs. Leave them alone. Their life is an eternal spa.

[Rory Scovel]

All right, number nine, capuchin monkeys. Adorable little guys. Remember, Ross had Marcel on Friends.

[Amanda Knox]

What is that?

[Rory Scovel]

That would be Marcel. You want to say hi? No.

[Lane Rose]

No, I don't.

[Rory Scovel]

Oh, yeah. Yep. Known for their cunning strategy, especially when it comes to handling those who are aggravating them. Biting, scratching, and attempted maiming is not uncommon. Ryan quotes NBC News saying that despite their miniature stature, pet capuchin monkeys have a tendency to turn on their owners. When they reach sexual maturity at around 5, they can become extremely destructive and dangerous to those trying to domesticate them.

[Lane Rose]

Yep. That's no different than any teenage boy.

[Rory Scovel]

Yeah, I mean, fair enough, right? They're like, I'm ready to meet some lady monkeys or boy monkeys. And they're like, no, sorry. You're going to be my pet and live in this cage.

[Lane Rose]

Yeah. I think we all become teenagers and turn on our owners. That's just a natural. That's the most natural thing I've ever heard.

[Rory Scovel]

Oh, here's an important thing I forgot to read to you. While a cabochon is not strong enough to carry knives. Oh, okay.

[Lane Rose]

Yeah, you should maybe include that.

[Rory Scovel]

Not strong enough to tear the skin away from your face. Its teeth and bite are sharp and powerful enough to take off a finger.

[Lane Rose]

I am. You know, I'm willing to lose a finger if I get to keep all of my epidermis.

[Rory Scovel]

Eight spider monkeys. Named for those really long, dangly arms. They're actually pretty adorable. And they're generally not at all mean, but when you try and domesticate them, there's a theme developing here. I feel like, not mean at all in the wild. And then you try and domesticate them. Spider monkeys that have been kept in isolation and as pets, even in zoos, display extremely violent behavior toward their human keepers. Isolated spider monkeys will frequently attempt to bite and choke whoever comes near them.

[Lane Rose]

I agree 100%. I agree. That's. I think that's just correct. I don't know.

[Rory Scovel]

Did your kid ever have one of those stuffed animals with the Velcro on the legs?

[Lane Rose]

Yes. Even those can become violent.

[Rory Scovel]

Okay. Another relative, the rhesus macaque, is number seven. Yep. Oh, this is our friends from Thailand. Right. Which is now also an invasive species in Florida. When a rhesus macaque is cornered, they will lash out, biting, tearing, and scratching their pursuit. We know all about that. Right. Of course. From Thailand. But here's the twist in Florida, which will make a lot of sense when you hear this. Florida's rhesus macaque population are known harbingers of a fatal strain of herpes.

[Josh Dean]

Checks out. Yeah.

[Lane Rose]

All right.

[Rory Scovel]

Consider yourself warned, Rory.

[Narrator/Guest]

All right.

[Lane Rose]

You know, I had the information. It's my own fault.

[Rory Scovel]

Six howler monkeys. Those are the really loud ones from Central America for anyone who's been there. Not super aggressive, but they're filthy and they spread a lot of disease. According to the Guardian, researchers in South America linked three separate outbreaks to zoonotic malaria. Those who came down with the disease. This is quoted from the Guardian, by the way. Those who came down with the disease were mostly middle aged men who enjoyed spending time wandering in the forest. Yeah.

[Lane Rose]

Yeah, that's right.

[Rory Scovel]

What the hell?

[Lane Rose]

Yeah. You're Emersons. You're Emersons of the world.

[Rory Scovel]

I feel like probably most diseases that came from the wild were initially spread by some middle aged white man who wandered into the forest. Right? Like, yeah, he's like, I wonder what's in this forest.

[Lane Rose]

Yeah, the Unabomber. Who knows what monkeys did to him.

[Rory Scovel]

5 Gelada. Very cool looking monkey. It looks like a CGI. Bad guy monkey from a movie. Lang. He pull one up. Natives of the Ethiopian highlands. Their teeth do not seem suited to their diet. Look at these canines. They're called a gelada. Gelada.

[Lane Rose]

Ugh, what a great name.

[Josh Dean]

They look kind of gelada. Chesty.

[Rory Scovel]

Yeah, they're ripped.

[Lane Rose]

These are beautiful. This is great.

[Rory Scovel]

Cool as hell, right?

[Lane Rose]

I love it. But yeah, the teeth are terrifying. Of course.

[Rory Scovel]

But fortunate for humans, they prefer to eat grass and vegetation.

[Lane Rose]

Would never have guessed that.

[Rory Scovel]

No, I know you would think.

[Josh Dean]

Why do they have those teeth then?

[Rory Scovel]

I don't know.

[Lane Rose]

Oh, these, These are for the grass that. The grass that doesn't want to play ball.

[Rory Scovel]

All right, four crab eating macaques. Small monkeys with a penchant for theft. The crab eating macaque will often steal people's possessions, then use said possessions as collateral for getting food. These actions may seem mildly amusing, but if the monkeys don't get what they want, things can turn violent quickly. Sounds familiar, right? These are relatives of our friends in Thailand.

[Narrator/Guest]

Yeah.

[Lane Rose]

Although with a very specific diet. So much so it influenced their name.

[Rory Scovel]

By the way, they also carry herpes and are invading Florida.

[Lane Rose]

Also should be noted, the macaque does not appreciate a seafood medley. It specifically wants crab.

[Rory Scovel]

Do you think it's just coincidence that the two species that are invasive to Florida have herpes?

[Lane Rose]

Not even slightly.

[Rory Scovel]

There's some guy in Key west, he's like, wasn't me. It was like.

[Lane Rose]

No one said it was you. I just want you guys to know it wasn't me. I'm just getting out in front of it.

[Rory Scovel]

Three baboons. Several different types. All of them have the potential to kill humans. Note this word, potential. As of yet, there are no recorded instances of baboons killing human beings. Yeah, so they're mostly known for eating crops. But Ryan did almost end with this terrifying tidbit. They're also known to kill and eat sheep on occasion.

[Lane Rose]

You know, hey, we've all got. We've all got sheep skeletons in the closet. Okay.

[Rory Scovel]

I'm not a judge. Number two, mandrills. You pull those up. Those are also. That's a good looking monkey. They can weigh 120 pounds of mostly muscle.

[Lane Rose]

Yeah, that's what's scary.

[Rory Scovel]

The largest monkey on earth.

[Josh Dean]

I think this is rafiki from Lion King.

[Lane Rose]

It means you're a baboon and I'm not.

[Rory Scovel]

Here's what Ryan writes and I really enjoying. In all seriousness, Ryan's pros. I really enjoyed this story. Bearing this in mind, a mandrel is certainly capable of Taking on a fully grown human and tearing them to shreds. If the occasion calls for it. They will defend their territory against other animals with a ferocity that is unmatched by any other monkey.

[Josh Dean]

Top, top hit is a $254 Home Depot statue of a Mandalorian.

[Lane Rose]

I did not see. I did not see statue. And I was like wait, we buy these things for 254.04 at Home Depot. Quite a deal. Home Depot is just stunning. Beautiful. These obviously were the monkeys where they were trying out the makeup.

[Rory Scovel]

A new release from Alpha Genesis 2024 collection.

[Lane Rose]

What do you think about a sky blue blush?

[Rory Scovel]

So the largest and most powerful monkey also lives in groups, not gangs. That can number up to a thousand. So imagine 1,120 pound ripped monkeys. And finally, number one, slow loris. The only venomous primate.

[Lane Rose]

That's a thing.

[Rory Scovel]

That's the. Oh wait.

[Lane Rose]

It's the equivalent of finding out about flying spiders. Venomous monkeys.

[Rory Scovel]

As Ryan writes, most would want nothing more than to cuddle these little guys for hours. That would be a mistake.

[Lane Rose]

That's a poisonous. That's a venomous monkey.

[Rory Scovel]

It is.

[Lane Rose]

That's not fair.

[Rory Scovel]

According to the Smithsonian, the bite from a slow loris is powerful enough to rot and melt flesh away. Can also lead to anaphylactic shock. If not treated immediately, the bite is strong enough to pierce through bone. Is going to kill you. And gruesomely.

[Lane Rose]

Oh my God. That's crazy.

[Rory Scovel]

Look how cute.

[Lane Rose]

It looks like a mogwai from Gremlins.

[Narrator/Guest]

What is it?

[Lane Rose]

Your new pet. They're so tiny. They got those eyes. That's how they do it.

[Rory Scovel]

What an incredible like nature made them so cute and so deadly. Yeah.

[Lane Rose]

Why is it called the slow loris?

[Rory Scovel]

Actually I have seen them move at a zoo. They're very slow.

[Lane Rose]

Oh, well that's good to know. Well, you know what? Maybe they should be venomous then. That's on. That's on us.

[Josh Dean]

They gotta have something you know also

[Lane Rose]

appreciates a hot spring. That's the one thing they don't say about all the monkeys. Also, all of them love hot springs.

[Rory Scovel]

Can we see what they're going for at Home Depot?

[Lane Rose]

Now these are if you want to get on a payment plan.
