Some displaced monkeys have invaded a hospital in South Africa, carting away food from patients. The animals were said to have been displaced after the hospital was built in the forest, which used to be their home.
Accordinn to Daily Mail, the troop of vervet monkeys began targeting the RK Khan Hospital in Durban before 2018 Christmas, entering through windows which had been left open.
A video taken from one of the wards shows the monkeys running along curtain rails above the beds and scampering along the floor, leaving patients in despair.

South Africa’s Health Minister Dr Aaron Motsoaledi said, “We must find an immediate solution and I no longer want to see monkeys in the premises.”
