PHUKET: Residents at a worker’s camp in Chalong have expressed their concern over a troupe of wild monkeys that risk entering homes in the camp to steal food.
 

Residents at a workers’ camp in Soi Yodsanae called local rescue officials to try to catch the monkeys this morning after more of the cheeky simians descended from the trees to steal food from inside one of the homes at about 10am.

 

“The monkeys come down from the trees and onto the roofs of the homes. They scoot down to steal food and then quickly retreat back to the roofs and into the trees,” one of the residents explained.
