The park authorities in Lop Buri state, where the catch was far below estimates, won the first round of their conflict with lemurs.
On the first day of the procedure, Monday, the department’s Natural Resources, Wildlife, and Plant Conservation Department had planned to confine 30 monkeys, but it afterwards admitted only nine had been found.
The Khao Sompoj no-hunting place is in charge of pursuing the macaques, but a local official claimed that the monkeys had been aware of the hunting plans and methods used to find them. The hunters may make a few adjustments, including changing their camouflage garb for human clothing.
” Macaques are social animals. The people in the bars have sent impulses to the others, informing them how they were caught”, said the standard, whose name was not disclosed.
On Wednesday, the three-day operation to reduce the number of the often extreme monkeys in Lop Buri municipality will continue.
According to the same official, the procedure on Tuesday had moved to different locations in the city. They were also being more careful, targeting extreme chimpanzees and their rulers. Local people were , helping by pointing out the most unpleasant creatures to the catcher.
After lemurs injured people in three instances this month, the Natural Resources and Environment Ministry decided to take action to reduce the population.
Around 2,700 monkeys are thought to be roaming the city, the majority of them at the historic site close to the railroad station, according to officials.
While the area searches for appropriate, continuous locations to release the animals, they will be transported to a temporary shelter at the Wildlife Rescue Centre in Nakhon Nayok state.
The recovery facility is located in the Nakhon Nayok city of Muang in the name of tambon Khao Phra. It now houses at least 1, 000 chimpanzees. People in the area are alarmed by the possibility of keeping yet more monkeys that, and they have voiced their opposition to the walk, according to One News.
Pongsawad Theerawattanakul, the leader of the tambon Khao Phra Administration Organisation, said lemurs escaping from the heart had now caused trouble for the group, scaring kids and perhaps damaging the local university.
According to him, “local officials agreed they do not want to see monkeys from Lop Buri in the area.”
The producer of the wildlife rescue center, Taweep Lomwong, claimed that the facility had already prepared bars for them and that it could only get 50 macaques from Lop Buri.  ,
