Thousands of wild monkeys struggle for food with no tourists to feed them in Thai park

Thousands of wild monkeys in a park in rural Thailand have been left struggling to find food without tourists to feed them.

The primates were once given snacks by visitors to the 320-hectare forest in Amnat Charoen province, Thailand, but the Covid-19 pandemic has seen tourism dwindle. The current dry season which started in January and high temperatures beyond 30C most days has added to the pressure.
