This decision was made due to a monkey population spike, which has been affecting the livelihood of the local residents. These monkeys known for their bold behavior came down from the hill to steal goods, causing damage to properties and creating disturbances for the local residents.

Popular Post PETERTHEEATER Posted December 28, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 28, 2023 During a family visit here about twenty years ago we were climbing in single file the steps up the hill when a large male macaque appeared over the border wall and snatched a biscuit from my grandson's hand. My wife jumped forward to protect him and the monkey bit her arm. Before I could react my son-in-law a six foot rugby player had leapt forward and with a rib-crunching kick lofted the beast into the air, over the wall, and crashing into the undergrowth. My wife had to be treated at a Hua Hin hospital with a course of anti-rabies shots. Of all the cute monkey species, never trust a macaque or baboon! 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Peterphuket Posted December 28, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 28, 2023 In my opinion, it is not only in Phetchaburi, why is it not also done in other districts like Lopburi, Hua-hin, and more. Or maybe it is because no one wants to visit the palace on the hill anymore. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
