If you step into a Hindu home, odds are high you'll find an image of Hanuman, the monkey god. He has the head and tail of a rhesus monkey, and the body of a man. Sometimes you'll see him ripping open his chest to reveal Rama and Sita-God and Goddess-residing in his heart.
It's impossible to exaggerate how much Hindus love this passionate, energetic monkey. In fact, it's a crime to kill a monkey in India. Monkeys are considered sacred due to their association with Hanuman!
