The Indochinese rhesus macaque, also known as 'golden monkey', is an endangered and rare species listed in Viet Nam’s Red Book.
The monkey and 12 wild bamboo rats were found and seized in the household of Trieu Van Dung, residing in Ban Thac hamlet, Yen Hoa Commune of Na Hang District.
District police made a record of Dung's violation of the law for possessing the wild animal.
The wild animals would survive in nature because they were released back to the forest in a very healthy condition given that they were captured not too long ago, according to the local authorities.
