Earlier this year, residents in Shibata, 260 kilometres north-west of Tokyo used Government subsidies meant for unemployment to hire four people as monkey-chasers.
We were being chased… the order for arrest having gone out weeks before… but on that one day… my birthday… he and his men organized a kind of party for me after we’d made camp for the night.
We were close enough to Shimosuwa by then for the other three patrols to put in an appearance.

NAGANO -- Fourteen women were injured Monday after a wild monkey went on the rampage in a residential area of Shimosuwa, Nagano Prefecture, authorities said.
A Shimosuwa official said the strong macaque could be extremely agitated because it was chased out of its habitat after losing out in a fight with another male monkey over who would rule their domain.
Tokyo (dpa) - Nine women were attacked Tuesday by a monkey in a residential area in Shimosuwa town in Japan's central Nagano prefecture, police said.
The tests were carried out between September and November this year in the Nagano Prefecture towns of Shimosuwa, Hata and Achi.
Attempts to infiltrate the system were made using a computer through three different connections: from outside local body offices with a LAN connection, from within the offices with a LAN connection, and through the Internet.
In Shimosuwa, a wireless LAN card available in stores was used from outside government office buildings to successfully gain access to the names of people and other personal data.
