This video shows a deeply disturbing look at the suffering of several young monkeys, each displaying alarming behaviors—screaming, trembling, hiding, or attacking each other—all signs of severe emotional or physical distress.
At first glance, viewers may think these monkeys are being “stubborn” or “naughty,” but the truth runs deeper. Monkeys are intelligent, social creatures that depend on strong group bonds, nurturing from their mothers, and a stable environment. When those needs are unmet—especially in captivity or improper human care—they can become fearful, aggressive, or completely withdrawn.
In this clip, some monkeys appear to be reacting to stress, pain, hunger, or past trauma. You may see one monkey scream nonstop, another hide in corners, or two young ones fight violently. These are not normal behaviors for healthy, well-cared-for monkeys—and they shouldn’t be dismissed as entertainment.
What’s worse, some online content exploits these animals, capturing their pain for clicks without offering them real care or help. This video is a powerful reminder of why ethical treatment and proper rescue environments are so essential for wildlife—especially for species as emotionally complex as macaques.
