Six Arrested for Killing, Eating Endangered Langur Monkey and Live-streaming It on Social Media

men, aged 35-59, filmed themselves eating a langur monkey in November and streamed the video on Facebook.
Police say the men confessed on Thursday to violating wildlife protection laws.
Vietnamese langur monkeys are one of the world's most endangered primate species, living only in the north.
"It took time for us to figure out the suspects involved," police told AFP.

In a statement, police added that one of the men bought the monkey from a hunter for 1.1 million dong (£38; $48).
