How Bali’s monkey “mafia” is tricking tourists
As if tourists don’t have enough to worry about these days, researchers in Indonesia have pointed to a monkey “mafia” that has taken over a popular temple to pilfer visitors.
While these monkeys might look innocent enough, they’re up to all sorts of monkey business and have developed a reputation for taking belongings and returning them for food.
See this in action below.
With each generation, the monkeys have grown bolder and have learned from their parents that if they hold onto the stolen goods, they will get a tasty treat.
