Too Many Laws?

When a government or institution is seen to pass an excessive number of laws it is usually in direct proportion to the lack of self-governing and self-discipline among its citizens or members.

In other words, when the monkeys act like rabid apes, the cage door slams shut. 

If the monkeys weren't screaming, jumping, and attacking each other they would be in control and they would have seen the zookeeper coming.
