Fruit galore: Thai monkey festival returns as tourists come back
Watched by tourists and locals, thousands of monkeys in Lopburi in central Thailand feasted on two tonnes of fruits and vegetables after the town's Monkey Festival resumed following a two year hiatus caused by the pandemic. Hundreds of macaques, also known as long-tailed monkeys, were seen climbing on people and stacks of fruit, munching away on bananas and pineapples.
