A FOUR-DAY-OLD baby girl has died after being snatched from her home by a wild monkey.
The macaque ran into the living room of the house in Malaysia, grabbed the sleeping newborn and fled on to the roof.The child suffered bites to her neck and face before falling from the single-storey home's roof.
The tot's body was found outside the property in the eastern town of Seremban yesterday.
The baby's mum - named only as V Revathy, 26 - was not in the room at the time.
Her 70-year-old father-in-law had gone to get a glass of water when the tragedy occurred.
The grandad said: "We frantically searched all over the house and saw her body covered in blood lying outside."
The little girl was rushed to the Tuanku Ja'afar Hospital but was pronounced dead.
Wildlife and national parks director Ishak Muhamad said the monkey was shot a short time later after a search of the area surrounding the house.
He said: "We suspect the macaque was rummaging for food inside the house. It could have taken the baby to the roof thinking the newborn was food.
"The baby died when it fell to the ground. The monkey had apparently released the baby, probably because it was alarmed by the parents' shouts."
Malaysian authorities have battled a booming macaque population, which can be aggressive, in urban areas.

SEREMBAN - Tindakan seorang datuk meninggalkan cucu perempuannya yang baru berusia empat hari di ruang tamu bersendirian mengundang padah apabila bayi tersebut mati selepas disyaki menjadi mangsa serangan kera jantan liar dalam kejadian di Taman Gembira, Rasah di sini semalam.
Ekoran kejadian pukul 1.15 petang itu, bayi yang masih belum diberi nama tersebut cedera parah di kepala, telinga, leher dan muka akibat digigit haiwan berkenaan.
Mengimbau semula kejadian tersebut, datuk mangsa, A. Valayutham, 70, memberitahu, dia meletakkan cucunya di ruang tamu kerana hendak mengambil minuman di dapur.
Difahamkan, sebelum kejadian, ibu mangsa, V. Revathy, 26, pergi ke bilik air manakala isteri Valayutham sedang memasak.
Menurut Valayutham, selepas beberapa langkah, dia terkejut sebaik mendengar Revathy menjerit apabila mendapati anaknya hilang.
"Saya yang cemas kemudian bergegas mencari bayi tersebut di luar rumah dan saya bagaikan hendak pitam apabila mendapati tubuh kecil cucu saya terbaring di tepi sebatang pokok bunga dalam keadaan berlumuran darah.
"Pada masa yang sama saya juga melihat beberapa ekor kera berlari ke arah belukar yang terletak bersebelahan dengan rumah saya," katanya ketika ditemui di Hospital Tuanku Ja'afar Seremban (HTJ) di sini semalam.
Dia kemudian bergegas membawa cucunya ke HTJ sebelum bayi itu disahkan mati akibat kecederaan parah di kepala, muka dan leher.
