Jimu Journalist Xu Cambridge Cao Xuejiao

On September 4, some netizens posted a video saying that when they played in Jiuhua Mountain Scenic Area, Anhui, they encountered a wild monkey and bite tourists. On the 6th, the staff of the Jiuhua Mountain Scenic Area told Jimu Journalists that the wild monkeys were more irritable this season, and they would grab when they saw bright colors. If tourists are bitten, the scenic area can pay vaccine fees.

The video provided by the interviewees shows that in the Jiuhua Mountain Scenic Area in Chizhou, Anhui, a female tourist wearing a blue top was snatched by a monkey's handbag on his arm during the upper mountain. She wanted to get back the bag and was intimidated by the monkey's teeth. Subsequently, the monkey suddenly stood up and grabbed the woman, and bit her arm many times. There was a tourist next to the woman: "Don't move, don't move."

On September 6, the video publisher Ms. Li said that at about 2 pm on the 4th, she and her sister met the monkey at the mountainside of the Tiansai Scenic Area of ​​Jiuhua Mountain. After the monkey grabbed the blue female tourists, they dared to continue down the mountain. But Ms. Li and his party came out not far. The monkey suddenly caught up again, climbing directly on Ms. Li's body to bite her.

"I didn't bring anything or backpack at the time. A few of us did not feed or tease the monkey, just walking normally." Ms. Li said that the monkey climbed to her and bit her shoulders at that time, and she was painful and scared. Fortunately, a male tourist passed by and used an umbrella to help her drive the monkey. After going down the mountain, she found that not only the coat was caught, but her shoulders and arms were bitten.

On the 5th, Ms. Li had gone to the hospital for a vaccine, but the bruised bruises on her arm had not dispersed.

According to the staff of the Jiuhua Mountain Scenic Area, there are indeed many wild monkeys in the scenic area, and wild monkeys are more fierce. The monkeys in this season are more irritable, and they will grab when they see bright colors. There are warning signs along the road, reminding tourists not to tease the wild monkey, and special staff to drive monkeys. In order to prevent wild monkeys from snatching tourists, the scenic area will also feed wild monkeys on a regular basis.

"Otherwise, the wild monkey is hungry, and there will be more things to grab tourists." The staff member said, but now the number of wild monkeys is increasing, and there are many places in the scenic area, and management is not difficult. If tourists are bitten by wild monkeys, they can reimburse the cost of vaccine in the scenic area.
