Wild monkeys living near a Buddhist temple have begun to starve as a drought causes a food shortage in northeastern Thailand.

The monkeys in Tham Pha Mak Ho temple in Loei province have had to rely on food given by tourists to stave off hunger as the hot weather has caused their natural foraging areas to dry up.
