  • Police in the Thai city of Lopburi are rounding up monkeys to try and curb a growing population they say has become aggressive.
    The macaques there have been around for decades, drawing in tourists, but recently there’s been some dangerous encounters with locals and visitors.
    Wildlife officials are now trying to tackle the issue.

      Yeah that's what causes this. People being nice and friendly to monkeys then they expect all humans to be friendly to them and feed them.

      The monkeys are known to pull long hair from people and use it as dental floss.
      They sneak up behind people, and suddenly pull out a piece of their hair.
      Interestingly, they have learned to do this from each other. It's a part of their culture.
