"The police officers had some bananas in their lunch, so they were giving the monkey bananas so it wouldn't take off," Buchanan said. And Mango isn't the first loose monkey Ontario officials have had to capture. Police in a small central Ontario town had to use bananas to lure a renegade monkey into captivity Sunday morning after it was spotted on the loose in a residential area. Police say a passerby saw the spider monkey — named Mango — at about 6 a.m.Officers had to use bananas to keep Mango from running away before bringing him into captivity. "So the monkey hung out, because it liked the bananas."
