A wild obese macaque named "Uncle Fat", who was rescued from a Bangkok suburb, sits in a rehabilitation center in Bangkok, Thailand, Friday, May 19, 2017. The morbidly obese wild monkey, who gorged himself on junk food and soda from tourists, has been rescued and placed on a strict diet. Wildlife officials caught the chunky monkey -- nicknamed “Uncle Fat'' by locals -- after photos of the animal started circulating on social media last month. Uncle Fat weighs three times that, tipping the scales at around 26kg. She said Uncle Fat is an example of why people shouldn't feed wild monkeys unhealthy food.
