A male tourist has been banned from entering the Mount Emei Scenic Area for three years after a viral video showed him pushing a protected Tibetan macaque near a roadside railing in the Leidongping area. Authorities said the man admitted wrongdoing and apologized after an investigation by police and forestry officials.
The scenic area said the tourist violated wildlife protection regulations and was placed on a blacklist for uncivilized behavior. Tibetan macaques are under second-class national protection in China, and officials reminded visitors to keep a safe distance from wild animals and avoid feeding, provoking or harming them.
