On May 20, Lao Cai Provincial Police said that Van Chan Commune Police had just coordinated with the Nghia Lo Regional Forest Protection Department to receive a wild monkey individual voluntarily handed over by people.
Previously, in the afternoon of May 18, Mr. Ha Van Thuy (born 1989, residing in Ha Thinh village, Van Chan commune) discovered a male monkey appearing on the inter-village road, regularly climbing around residential areas, taking chicken eggs, picking fruit in people's gardens.
