Monkey Mayhem: Kenyan Farmers Battle Crop-Raiding Primates

Farmers in Busia, Kenya, are battling a growing problem: monkeys are destroying their corn crops. The animals are causing significant damage, leaving farmers frustrated and facing potential food shortages. "We have tried everything," says one farmer, "but the monkeys keep coming back." The video shows the extent of the damage, with many corn stalks bent and broken. Farmers have invested money in various deterrents, but none have been successful. The situation highlights the delicate balance between human needs and wildlife conservation. Authorities are now being urged to find a solution to protect both the farmers' livelihoods and the monkey population.
