Lopburi, central Thailand, July 25, 2021 (photographs, video still)??????NEWS COPY - WITH VIDEO AND PICTURES??????This is the astonishing moment two gangs of rival wild monkeys had a fight in front of shocked drivers. The troops are normally well fed by visitors but a Covid-19 third wave lockdown has lead to a renewed food shortage for the animals in Lopburi, central Thailand.

Officials have also tried to control the number of monkeys by rolling out mass sterilisation programs. Supakarn Kaewchot, a government veterinarian, said: 'The monkeys are so used to having tourists feed them and the city provides no space for them to fend for themselves.
