webfact Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Thai wildlife officials and police intercepted a shipment of 47 macaque monkeys on a pickup truck Monday morning, at a checkpoint on Friendship highway in Non Sung district of the north-eastern province of Nakhon Ratchasima. The two men in the truck were arrested after the officials found the monkeys, which are believed to be being shipped to China through Laos. The driver of the truck, Kritaya, reportedly told the officials that they took delivery of the monkeys in Ratchaburi province, to be delivered to a customer in the province of Nong Khai, opposite Vientiane of Laos, who would then have sent the monkeys on to China.

Thingamabob Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Soon there will be no wildlife of any kind in Thailand. At best Thai officials couldn't care less, at worst they take a share of the poaching profits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussienam Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Article claiming the monkeys were to be slaughtered for traditional Chinese medicine. I wonder how they were going to be slaughtered? Skull piece lifted off and brains eaten alive by Chinese weirdos wanting better erections despite painfully torturing creatures alive? Chinese have a reputation for deliberately torturing animals as part of its traditional medicine out of their backwards beliefs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
