Today (May 22) a public hearing was held with the Tha Chin community in Rassada led by Director of the Natural and Wildlife Education Centre at Khao Phra Thaew Non-Hunting Area in Thalang Pongchart Chouehorm. More than 180 locals joined in the public hearing to discuss the monkey problem in the area.

 

Five suitable islands off the coast of Phuket have been surveyed to move ‘some’ of Phuket’s monkeys. The suggested uninhabited islands are Koh Ngam, Koh Pa Yu, Koh Mali, Koh Pae and Koh Tanan.

 

Big water tanks will be prepared to place on islands to provide adequate hydration supplies for the monkeys. These monkeys will be sterilised from July 5 to 25. All locals in Tha Chin community agreed to the monkeys’ birth control and to move some monkeys to the islands.
