    4. PRIMATE PROTECTION 

    While fighting fire with fire may not work, fighting monkey with monkey seems to. When an Indian government building was being plagued by pestering rhesus monkeys, the building hired a larger langur monkey as a bodyguard. Pawan, the langur-monkey protector, shows up to the building each morning and scares off any smaller relatives. (Christian Science Monitor)
