70 monkeys have been released back at Khao To Sae. Five days ago they were captured on the popular tourist hill overlooking Phuket Town and taken for sterilisation. This is Stage Two in a program by Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation officials to reduce the number of Macaques living in areas around Phuket frequented by tourists.

 

In Stage One, captured and sterilized monkeys were repatriated to Koh Payu, a small island off Phuket.

 

129 macaques were captured on September 13 at Khao To Sae in Rassada.
