Monkey runs amok in Tokyo's urban jungle
There have been some unusual sightings in Tokyo this week.

First there was the bizarre nude swim by a British tourist in the moat around the Imperial Palace in the centre of Tokyo.

Now, the urban jungle of the world's largest metropolis is home to a mysterious monkey that's been leading the city on a merry chase in recent months.

The monkey appears to have taken up residence and has been seen from one side of the city to the other; spotted at temples, swinging from power lines in suburban streets, even at a railway station.

But as Shane McLeod reports the naughty monkey seems determined not to be caught.
