Mangos Turn Into Bombs?

A few years ago my family and

 I were in  El Salvador.

It's a really cool place up a river in the mangroves called Bahia de Jiquilisco.  

There were crocodiles and bull sharks in the river! 

 

One day we went on a long and hot walk trough the jungle.  Passing a vast field of sugarcane we then stopped at a huge pond that our guide said there were fresh water prawns in.  As we walked through the jungle, about 30 minutes after we past the pond, we saw an ocelot cub run in front of us.  I was so surprised I jumped.

Shortly after, we arrived at a shack.  All we saw were about a dozen of small cages with some timid monkeys in them.  We were all thinking "this is what we walked through a mosquito infested jungle for."  Then one of the older men got up and said "did you come to see the monkeys"?  We said "aren't these the monkeys?"  "No," he said "these are only the sick ones, follow me."  So we followed him, then he gave us all a banana and called "Poncho, Maria"!  When he called those names the trees exploded with shaking.  One tree almost touched the ground!    Then a mango sailed past our heads, then another and another.  Mangos were raining from the trees.  The monkeys weren't actually throwing the mangos at us.  But it sure did look like it!  There were hitting the ground hard.

Then we saw them.  First it was only 3, then 10, then 20.  

After 5 minutes there must of been a hundred monkeys! 

 There were so many crazy monkeys jumping around.  I saw one jump from the tip of a branch and land hanging by its tail!  It was so cool, the monkeys 

were coming down and grabbing the bananas out of our hands.

Some would even put there hand on your wrist for balance.  When they eat the bananas they actually peel back the skin like we do.  I love going there, it is always fun.
