Thousands of monkeys terrorise Thai town: Rival gangs battle for supremacy as they compete for food - even climbing on humans and cars - after getting hooked on sugary drinks
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]
  • The town of Lopburi, around 90 miles north of the capital Bangkok, is well-known for its monkey population

  • The primates bring tourists from around the world with locals even holding an annual festival to honour them

  • But the population spiralled out of control amid the pandemic and the monkeys are now terrorising the city

  • Lopburi is now ravaged by thousands of the sugar fuelled macaques clashing violently over food and territory

  • Government officials have tried to control the primate population with sterilisation programmes - to no avail
