Easter Monkey
At work I won a squeezie-monkey in a contest to write an array-shifting algorithm.
It's very cheapo, made in China, and the packaging has pictures of painted eggs and describes it as an "Easter Monkey" in broken English.
I can think of 3 possible explanations for this:
- In other parts of the world they celebrate Easter very differently than we do.
- There was a gross mistranslation of "bunny" somewhere.
- They only have a limited number of squeezie-doll molds, and rebrand them according to the time of year. So you might see the same product as a "Christmas Monkey" or a "4th of July Monkey" depending on when you bought it.

thats a mighty cute monkey.. i would assume they an differentiate between bunny and monkey since they are both part of their zodiac thing?

Hmm I didn’t even think that it might be zodiac-related. Maybe?
