A troop of macaques cooled off in a temple fountain amid the summer heat in Thailand.

Video shows the monkeys taking a dip in the pool at the Wat Tham Khao Pratun temple in Rayong province, as temperatures reached 35 degrees Celsius.

Thailand, a largely Buddhist nation, believes that kindness towards animals should be encouraged, with temples sometimes being a safe refuge for stray cats, dogs, and even monkeys that don't have homes.

However, the growing population of primates has become a problem as the animals are known to damage property, such as cars and buildings. Unafraid of the consequences, they have also started stealing food from tourists and locals.
