@elizabethtasker Mt Abu is not very high, so yes, lots of monkeys. Also it's a religious place, which further leads to more monkeys and other animals as people make food offerings to them. You need to look in the Himalayan ranges and go above the 3000m mark to get rid of the monkeys. However at those heights you will have logistics issues getting the materials there and day to day items. Hmmm.. quite complicated.
