A wild monkey had a shocking encounter to Pattaya, flying off a utility pole after being electrocuted.
Security officers at Bali Hai Pier called City Councilman Nikom Sangkaew for help after finding the burned and injured monkey still breathing on the pavement at the South Pattaya jetty Nov. 2.
Nikom contacted Pattaya City’s head veterinarian Dr. Surapong Wongsuthwat, who provided emergency care to the hapless monkey.
The monkey was serious hurt and is under the care of the city veterinarian department. The little primate will be released into the wild once it has fully recovered.
