Rival gangs of wild monkeys fight each other in Thailand

(Web Desk) - Two rival gangs of wild monkeys fought each other in front of shocked drivers in Thailand.

The monkeys are normally well fed by visitors but a Covid-19 third wave lockdown has led to a renewed food shortage for the animals in Lopburi, a city in central Thailand.

They were seen squaring off in front of the ruins of an ancient Buddhist temple before one group were chased away onto a nearby road.

Footage shows how the two rival troops then faced-off at the busy junction while terrified motorists waited in their cars for more than four minutes.
