Phetchaburi authorities arrested six members of a wildlife trafficking gang and rescued over ten macaques near a hill in the Muang district. The arrests took place today morning following a tip-off, leading the police to the foothill of Khao Luang in tambon Thongchai, where they discovered the group capturing long-tailed macaques.

 

Upon monitoring the gang, officers observed four men and two women using tranquiliser darts to capture the monkeys. The authorities apprehended all suspects and rescued more than ten macaques. They also seized a Ford Ranger pickup truck, a Toyota Prius, a Toyota Wish, 80 tranquiliser darts, a bag of animal feeds, and other items from the group.
