Where's a monkey going to get a knife?

Checkmate: Monkeys do have ranged weapons, but they don't come even close to hurting a walrus. They could throw bananas and poo all day without any effect. So in order for any damage to be done, the monkey would have to get in close. But the only way that a monkey could hurt a walrus, even from up close is with their teeth. But walri have a slew of close range weapons that would destroy the monkey before they even got a chance to open their mouths.

Therefore:
Walri: 1
Monkeys: -3

Walri can't fly like monkeys can though.

So it's a standoff.

What is the life expectancy of a walrus compared to a monkey?

Maybe I can wait you out....

I'm in the process of training a monkey to be the first player to 300,000 moves. The moves mightn't be the best, or even legal, but luckily RHP only allows legal moves, so that problem is sidestepped.

I'd like to see you try to do the same with a walrus.

So why do you fear them? Or is all this talk just something your therapist told you to do to convince yourself that your fear is unfounded?

Life expectancy of a walrus - 15-25 years

Life expectancy of a monkey - 35 years

Monkey beating a walrus - priceless

Walri are too intelligent to allow you to train them to do something so stupid. They prefer quality over quantity.

Monkeys are hard to catch, I'll give you that.

But they still can't stand up to walri in hand-to-hand combat. And if I really wanted to catch the monkey, I'd just surround with toilets.

Are toilets like Monkey Kryptonite?

At least to the monkey in the video. I could ask checkmate, but if it really was monkey Kryptonite, then he certainly wouldn't tell me.

I think goats could prove to be the decisive factor here. Walri and Monkeys seem to be at a stand-off, with toilets and tusks versus speed and poop. We can write off BIG CATS as non-players.
