Thousands of wild monkeys are reportedly scattered throughout a small town in Thailand because they are addicted to sugary drinks and sweets. The monkeys roam the streets, jump into cars, climb onto people, and even steal money and food.
But according to the Daily Mail, during the pandemic, locals fed the monkeys a lot of sweets, leading to more and more monkeys gathering in small towns, whose numbers have doubled in recent years.
Locals are distributing plastic tubes filled with syrup and sugar, and monkeys suck the syrup and sugar dry and then grab bananas from another person to eat, without the slightest fear of humans, and even snatch things from people.
According to locals, there are even rival monkey gangs that clash when dividing territories.
Urban monkeys have less muscle than wild monkeys due to unhealthy diets, and many monkeys suffer from high blood pressure and blood disorders.
