Thousands of monkeys terrorise Thai town: Rival gangs battle for supremacy as they compete for food - even climbing on humans and cars - after getting hooked on sugary drinks

[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]

The town of Lopburi, around 90 miles north of the capital Bangkok, is well-known for its monkey population

The primates bring tourists from around the world with locals even holding an annual festival to honour them

But the population spiralled out of control amid the pandemic and the monkeys are now terrorising the city

Lopburi is now ravaged by thousands of the sugar fuelled macaques clashing violently over food and territory

Government officials have tried to control the primate population with sterilisation programmes - to no avail

#5 "Who knows, now that monkeys can fly,
Where they go in their gangs, much less why,
Or what they may cry,"
Asked a big Haitian guy,
"Though I doubt it's 'Ti Makak!' in Thai."
