Netizens urge her to be cautious

While uncommon, there are cases of macaques biting or scratching humans, according to a research document by the Tasmanian government.

Another user suggested that the monkey’s actions could be a result of him defending himself.

“I think his little fingernail got caught, and he must have thought that they wanted to tie him up, and he got scared,” they said.

However, others saw the hilarity in the situation, with one netizen commenting that witnessing the monkey’s cheeky behaviour did make them laugh.

Jokes aside, monkeys move unpredictably and can potentially bring harm or steal our belongings if we aren’t careful enough. Do remember to keep your distance when you’re in the presence of one.
