What a bizarre scene...

[lopburi3]

Badly reported old news.  There are two main groups a short distance apart and one group mostly gets food from foreign tourists (who are not there) and the other from Thai who are still providing.  The official food used to be to both locations but now only one place near the Thai fed group.  So it was an army of have nots attacking the haves and the haves protecting their domain.

Looks similar to a coachload of tourists from a certain country descending on a seafood buffet.....

Same photo as the yogurt fight story ....... fake news.

Yep, the world is out of control....

They were fighting for drink yoghurt...but the leader was arrested, i've seen a pic of that.

 

These monkeys also take the train to chiang mai sometimes to go fighting there with local monkeys...after that they take the train back to Lopburi. Serious!

The  result  of  the  gross  stupidity for anyone who feeds wild animals, be it dogs pigeons or  monkeys, BUT.....theyll never  learn

Just wait until the bargirls, no longer fed by tourists, start flooding onto the streets.

Actually some do take trains north to find food along tracks and then get on a return train to Lopburi.

Yes and they also fight with the local monkeys up there.

 

Since dogs can get corona isn't that the same for monkeys?

I believe the jury is still out on dogs.
