The one type of monkey that can bee seen at temple compounds, some railway stations etc. are called 'mankod' while another wild monkey, larger in size and has red behind, that used to be called 'vandor' (in Kannada 'Vaanara') that is edible hence hunted in 'south'.
To capture a mankod, a tender coconut is kept with a very small hole as bait. The monkey inserts its hand to grab the tender meat, but can't pull his hand out because it has fisted its hand with coconut meat and also can not run fast as its hand is trapped with the coconut weight, it can't run fast, so is caught easily.
