On November 20, the People's Committee of Bo Trach district (Quang Binh province) announced that it had just made an official decision on a plan to capture the langur that attacked people in the area.
After discovering a douc langur in Phong Nha town (Bo Trach district), authorities have taken measures to chase it away in recent days. However, because the animal appeared so suddenly, authorities had difficulty dealing with it.
This langur only appears when there are few people, often hiding in bushes or on high-rise buildings, so it is very difficult to find and chase.
After discussing and learning about the habits of this individual langur in Phong Nha town, the local authorities decided to use anesthetic spray. After that, they will monitor the health of this individual and release it back into the forest.
As reported by Lao Dong Newspaper, on November 14, Mr. Nguyen Hong The (in Phong Nha town, Bo Trach district) was traveling by motorbike in Phong Nha town when suddenly a douc langur rushed out and scratched his back, causing him to fall off his motorbike.
After that, he disinfected and took antibiotics to ensure his health. This black langur individual was found on the street in Xuan Tien and Cu Lac 1 residential groups (Phong Nha town).
