Maniacal monkeys is a Hunter creature, requiring the completion of Monkey Madness II to catch. Located beyond the crevice where Glough's laboratory used to be in Kruk's Dungeon (north past the monkey handholds after entering the dungeon), trapping them requires the player to mount a stunted demonic gorilla by holding the Kruk monkey greegree.

Bananas are mandatory in baiting these creatures, and you can only set up one trap at a time. When successfully captured, their tail will cut off, leaving behind a damaged monkey tail. There is a 1/5,000 chance that it will leave behind a monkey tail instead, which can be used to string ballistae. When this happens, the chatlog will show a message saying You've caught a monkey's tail. Other than the missing monkey, it's in perfect condition!
