Watch! Monkeys attack elderly woman, pulls hair, video goes viral
A recent incident in Delhi’s Batra Colony sparked widespread attention as video surfaced showing an elderly woman being attacked by a monkey.
New Delhi: A recent incident in Delhi’s Batra Colony has sparked widespread attention after a video surfaced showing an elderly woman being attacked by a monkey. The disturbing footage, which has gone viral, highlights the increasing conflicts between humans and monkeys in urban areas.
In the video, the elderly woman is seen sitting outside her home when a group of monkeys approaches the area. Without warning, one of the monkeys charges towards her, knocking her off her chair, pulls off the hair. The monkey proceeds to bite her on the lower body, and soon, other monkeys from the group join in, causing further distress.
The woman struggles as the monkey remains attached to her, but after a brief period, the animal retreats. Reports indicate that the woman suffered multiple bite marks and is currently receiving medical treatment for her injuries. Authorities have not yet commented on the specific reasons behind the attack, but it is believed to be part of a larger trend of increasing monkey-human encounters in certain parts of Delhi.
This incident underscores the growing concerns surrounding the rising population of monkeys in urban environments like Delhi. As their natural habitats shrink and they become more accustomed to human settlements, these animals are increasingly coming into contact with residents, leading to more frequent incidents of aggression and territorial behavior.
Local officials have yet to outline specific measures to address these conflicts, but it is clear that greater awareness and precaution are needed to prevent further attacks. Residents in affected areas are urged to remain cautious and avoid feeding monkeys, as this can encourage aggressive behavior.
