Tourist (21) lost for hours in jungle by monkey
A 21-year-old Belgian experienced a real adventure in Mexio, a remarkable story he will probably remember for the rest of his life.
The curious tourist vacationing in Mexico followed a Mexican howler monkey through the Lacandona jungle. Until the moment he had no idea where exactly he was....
The traveling companions noticed that the young Belgian had suddenly disappeared and alerted the emergency services. In his quest to find the perfect photo of the howler monkey, he got lost. The monkey lured him into the densest vegetation of the jungle. But when the Belgian tried to return to the path, he couldn't.
Fortunately, the curious tourist had a smartphone in his pocket and was able to contact emergency services himself. After a search of at least several hours, they were able to locate him and bring him back to civilization. He had suffered minor injuries and was also a bit dehydrated. What an adventure. And all because of his curiosity about the Mexican howler monkey!
