On February 18, the People's Committee of Cam Hieu commune (Cam Lo district, Quang Tri province) handed over a monkey to the Cam Lo district - Dong Ha city (Quang Tri province) Inter-provincial Forest Protection Department.
This monkey was trapped by local people and handed over to the locality on the morning of February 18.
About 5 months ago, the monkey appeared in Nam Hieu village (Cam Hieu commune), a male monkey, weighing about 5 kg.
This monkey often entered residential areas to destroy the property of villagers such as biting fruits in the garden, catching cats, chickens, etc.
Monkeys even threaten people's health, especially children.
People have set traps, but the monkeys are very smart, so they can only catch them now.
Through verification, this is a rare monkey belonging to group IIB, appendix II CITES.
