In a rather unusual discovery, residents of Prachinburi province have witnessed the appearance of strange monk-like termites and long-haired young women termites.

 

Found on the road to the eucalyptus forest near the ancient woods in the Ya Naree district, these peculiar termites have stirred up the curiosity of the locals. The sighting took place during yesterday evening.

 

The substantial termites, producing an uncanny similarity to the figures of Buddhist monks and young women sitting in a knees-up position, were observed towering when the villagers arrived at the scene.

 

As per the elder of the area, the forest is ancient and was supposedly haunted, filled with muffled cries of children at night. It was a customary practice for quite a few of the locals to venture out in the night for hunting frogs and pick mushrooms, reported KhaoSod.

I see a pic of a couple of termite mounds. Where are the images of the insects which resemble monks and long-haired women?
