Eva Longoria bitten by monkey

Los Angeles: Actress Eva Longoria is nursing a sore hand after she was bitten by a monkey while on vacation.

The former 'Desperate Housewives' star is closing out 2014 in Cartagena, Colombia, but her end-of-year getaway hasn't gone completely as planned after a run in with a furry friend.

Longoria, 39, shared a snap on Instagram earlier this week, showing herself caught in the moment, standing barefoot on a beach with her mouth wide open as she grimaces in pain, while a monkey sinks its teeth into her right hand.

In the accompanying caption, she writes, "This monkey bit me! Goodtimes CuteThough (sic)".
