" The Forever Meal.

Story of Saturn devouring his son is that a Spanish painter Francisco Goya depicted the Greek myth of the Titan Cronus
Fearing that he would be overthrown by one of his children, Cronus (Saturn when Romanized) ate each one of his children upon their birth "

One more time again it's completely inapropriate. This chimp is only eating an other monkey of a diferent specy. Why this monkey would be its son ? Why would they be apparented ? This chimp didn't preserve its future by eating it. Goya was a painter (1746-1828), not a scientist, and,as creator, could depict the very versatile universe of greekish gods as he wanted. It's true, according the greekish mythology, that Saturn devoured his sons, and it's true too that chimp are able to eat some other monkeys, even some other younger chimps. but this photo clearly shows the eaten monkey isn't a chimp.
