Heatwave in Mexico: Howler monkeys fall dead from trees
Due to a heatwave with temperatures of more than 45 degrees Celsius, numerous howler monkeys are falling dead or dehydrated from the trees in south-east Mexico. "We have to take care of the animals," said President Andrés Manuel López Obrador on Monday (20/05/2024). He will therefore ask the Ministry of the Environment to intervene. According to reports from environmentalists, 78 monkeys have already died in the states of Tabasco and Chiapas. Rescue teams of biologists and veterinarians are on the road in Tabasco to provide the howler monkeys with water and food, especially fruit, according to the local civil defence. In the municipalities of Cunduacán and Comalcalco alone, a total of four howler monkeys, including a young one, were found dead.
