Uncle Fatty, the Bangkok macaque famous for his enormous tummy, will soon be released back into the wild after a three-month stay in a government facility having his calories monitored.

 

Uncle Fatty used to lounge around the beach-side Bang Khun Thien district and tip the scales at a hefty 27 kilograms, today he is still-chubby 24.72 kilograms — so he lost about 8 percent of his body weight.
