Hordes of angry, hungry, and pugnacious monkeys are once again causing problems in Thailand as they battle for food.
In March of last year, hundreds of macaques from two well-known rival monkey gangs were filmed swarming the streets of Lopburi then savagely battling each other for a single banana… and the fight has once again taken to the Lopburi streets.
The primate syndicates, who used to being fed by tourists, held another huge rumble this week after the domestic travel ban slowed tourism and caused another food shortage.
The latest brawl took place in front of a Buddhist temple — between an organization of monkeys from the temple and another gang that normally hangs around the cinema. The melee got so bad it held up traffic for several minutes until one group crumbled and was chased away by the winning monkeys.
