IT Home reported on November 1 that, according to CCTV News, photos, text and videos recently circulating online purporting to show “wild monkeys coming down from the mountains to snatch phones” in Hemu, Xinjiang, have drawn public attention. After verification by the Burqin County Cyberspace Affairs Office in Xinjiang together with the local Forestry and Grassland Bureau’s Wildlife and Plant Protection Station, the content was confirmed to be false information.
According to a staff member at the Wildlife and Plant Protection Station of Burqin County’s Forestry and Grassland Bureau in Xinjiang, there are no wild monkey troops anywhere in the Hemu scenic area or Burqin County, and there are no records of monkey troops living or being active there. The photos, text and videos online are false information. The rumor is inconsistent with the actual state of local wildlife resources, and local cyberspace authorities have instructed the relevant platforms to remove the false information.
