Monkeys in Jaipur develop bleeding skin disease after being fed sweets by people

Monkeys at Jaipur's Galtaji temple are suffering from hyperkeratosis, a skin disease causing hair loss, cracked skin, bleeding wounds, and difficulty in movement, experts have warned. Senior wildlife veterinarian Ashok Tanwar said the condition is largely linked to people feeding them sweets, adding that the dietary change dries out their skin, leading to cracks.
