Steel and the Wowcho Man sure pulled a joke on me. They told me that Napoleon had a pet Bidenpanzee by the name of Bhawks. Well, I have looked all over for anything in the way of evidence but couldn't find not nary a lick. However, I did see that he had a pet monkey,
"During his nearly ten months on Elba he reorganized his new kingdom's defenses, gave money to the poorest of its 11,400 inhabitants, installed a fountain on the roadside outside Poggio (which still produces cold, clean drinking water today), read voraciously (leaving a library of 1,100 volumes to the municipality of Portoferraio), played with his pet monkey Jenar, walked the coastline along goat paths while humming Italian arias, grew avenues of mulberry trees.........."
The above can found on page 723 of "NAPOLEON - A Life" by Andrew Roberts.
