Footage of a monkey beating a seagull to death at Chester Zoo has gone viral on social media. Bec Adamson, 32, filmed the violent attack while on a day out with her family on Saturday.
The video, viewed more than two million times on TikTok, shows the primate in an enclosure as it slams the bird’s head against a pole it is standing on. After a five-minute battering, the monkey takes away the limp corpse to eat elsewhere.
Social media has been brimming with comments and reaction since we first wrote about the fatal attack. From those arguing it is just part of nature to those who think children should be shielded from such gory sights, here is a flavour of what you have been saying on Twitter and Facebook.
