    The Wider Image: Thai town emerges from monkey mania after

    A girl holds a slingshot, which is used to keep long-tailed macaques away, in front of her home, before officials started capturing monkeys in Lopburi, Thailand, February 3, 2024. After Lopburi came out of the pandemic lockdown in mid-2022, its residents found that the monkeys, without people feeding them, had become unruly. Troops of macaques had taken over buildings, often confronting residents, stealing food and causing accidents. Gangs of monkeys also fought in brawls, shocking locals. Small children, elderly women and even policemen carried around slingshots to try and scare away the macaques. REUTERS/Chalinee Thirasupa

    ABOUT QUEWS

    We are a news service born out of a global loss of confidence in media and destabilising polarisation of attitudes. We believe it is possible, indeed necessary, to create a public forum where vital issues of the day are discussed, debated, analysed and circulated.
