Authorities in Thailand put a stop to a sizeable smuggling operation wherein two ne'-er-do-wells allegedly attempted to exit the country with a staggering 81 monkeys in tow. The bizarre bust reportedly occurred on Friday when police near the Cambodian border grew suspicious of a pickup truck with a bevy of blue bags in its bed. Upon stopping the vehicle, cops discovered that the mesh bundles contained a jaw-dropping 81 macaque monkeys that the duo later admitted they planned to illegally deliver to the neighboring country.
