An Indian security force has come up with a novel idea to solve a problem with monkeys harassing people, by dressing up as bears to scare them off. <br /><br />The Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) personnel at Camp-Mirthi in Uttarakhand dress up like bears whenever they see a band of monkeys creating a nuisance, as seen in video from March 8. <br /><br />Footage shows several monkeys approaching the camp and two men step out dressed up as bears. The moment monkeys spot them, they flee. <br /><br />An ITBP officer commented: "Monkeys were disrupting the routine work of our men. They have met their match now."
