Do apex predators eat dead prey?

Dead prey is for scavengers. The only known wild predator that eats dead meat is the Hyena.

All predators eat dead prey especially fresh one, it doesn't
matter if they killed it, died naturally or was killed by another
predator.

Comedy

Even rats die of hearth attack, i have witnessed it.

Lols this came to mind.

lo ba tan

Why is everyone laughing ? Kai! nairalanders why can't we respect the dead elders?

APC news to Nigerians

Obviously na ajebo monkey dem.

Neva monkey wit others monkey monkeys...

This is mass murder. Where is that yeye tiger? It must answer for this crime.

Monkeys that live in the forest, to die in group just because of ordinary roar of tiggar. They should tell us that bird flu killed them.

Hahahaha
Monkey dey get heart attack?

They could have died of heart attack as confirmed by Autopsy. You can't argue heart attack when diagnosed.. But the question is the aetiology of the heart attack which I think has not been ascertained. Remember many things can lead to heart attack... Even some toxic plant, or food

Quacks everywhere.
Nigerian money-miss-road looters taking their pets (nothing those yeye people nor fit do) to India for vet treatment, make una come look o.

Is there any contaminated stuff they ate or drank from that caused heart ? Like a farmer seeing them as pests and decided to harm them?

Saying heart attack due to fear of predator is ridiculous.

Tigers don't eat dead meat.

a hungry/wounded tiger would eat just about anything, let alone "still warm" animals

btw what do you think they feed tigers in Zoos all over the world?!

Hahahahaha kai Abasi mbok!

It's a lie, am sure they dies of an infection.
They are trying to cover something, how can a wild animal died of a roar of tiger when they are not in the same cage.

MrBrownJay1:
died of a heart attack due to a tiger, yet the tiger didnt FEAST on this "tiger snacks".... highly laughable!

I suspect chemical weapons testing

Yh monkeys do experience heart attack also... Jux lyk has already been said in a couple of comments above, monkeys being primates and belonging to de class mammalia put them in the same line of nervous responds as humans... Lyk humans secrete the catecholamines otherwise known as flight hormones ( epinephrine n norepinephrine) in responds to frightening situations n stressors, monkeys do same... These neurotransmitters have prompt effect on the whole circulatory system but emphasis on the heart, which tends to elevate the hearts pumping action (cardiac output) in effect stressing the myocardium (heart muscles) decreasing it's contractility n ejection of blood as such leading to an eventual heart attack or cardiac arrest... Monkeys therefore experiencing heart attack may seems funny but is very possible. Other possible causes though may be due to fat embolism within the coronary arteries of the heart itself among other factors.

Who diagnosed them of heart attack?

Joephat:
Monkey died, they carried out research to know the cause of the death. These ppl must be backward.

They should come to nairaland and see how lalala will rush the picture or video of a hunter who made pepper soup with the monkey he killed in his farm to the front page.

Better still, they should come and see how soldiers and police who are supposed to protect lives of human beings, slaughter them without any reasonable reasons why they killed them.

What of during campaign that a politician will refer to the populace of human origin as blood of baboons and dogs that will shed if he fails to win an election

I pray Nigeria Sinks..

Nobody should ban me or you will be banned by God who sent me

Just look at somebody's nine months...

Those monkey are suffering from. Wat I call ajeboism. Pako monkey no go just die like Dat.

Poor poor monkeys,nothing to say because this is very funny mehn "monkeys had heart attack"

Biggest joke or lie of the century. Ordinary antelope with no defensive means or mechanism will 1st run rather than die of cardiac arrest let alone 12 monkeys. Why didn't the tiger devour their dead bodies if that were the case? A beg make them swerve jare

later, them mofos will say there is no God! science has failed once again... imagine the nonsense conclusion they came to after a postmortem. who would believe that shit? if they had cardiac arrest, they wouldn't have moved or they'd move slowly and the tiger could have caught up with them and eaten the all. the tiger I know attacks anything hungry or not....except its the tiger in "winneie the pooh"

A dozen monkeys have been found dead in a forest in India - with veterinary experts claiming they suffered simultaneous heart attacks after they were scared by a tiger.

Locals discovered the monkeys in a forest clearing and were initially baffled by the apparent mass death.

Suspecting the mammals had been poisoned, postmortems were carried out which reportedly revealed they all had heart attacks at the same time.

Vets in the Kotwali Mohammadi area of the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh carried out investigations.

Vet Dr Sanjeev Kumar said: 'It was confirmed in the post-mortem report that the monkeys died due to cardiac arrest.

The monkeys could have died due to tiger's roar as tigers often traverse that area.'

Forest department workers found the monkeys on Monday and an upsetting video shows them stuffing the bodies in polythene bags.

Villagers reported tigers are often in the area and were heard roaring at the time of the deaths.

The claim of a mass heart attack has been criticised by wildlife experts, however, who suggest the animals were more likely to have died from an infection.

Dr Brijendra Singh, a veterinarian, told the Times of India: 'Monkeys are a wild animal and they don't die in this manner. All the monkeys might have been suffering from some infection that claimed their lives.'
