This is the amusing moment a pet monkey was seen sulking while being scolded by his owner.

Waiyan Sanchez reprimanded his primate after it damaged their home in Mandalay, Myanmar.

Footage shows the Agile Gibbon perched on top of a car, tethered by a leash, seemingly listening to his irritated keeper on May 12.

The chimp can be seen looking down, avoiding eye contact with Ko, appearing visibly guilty for wandering off.

Waiyan said: 'I was so worried he might get hurt if he just wandered off, and I got mad at him after we caught him.'

Gibbons are highly intelligent and social animals that require ongoing mental stimulation and companionship to thrive.

Classified as endangered due to habitat loss and illegal wildlife trade, keeping gibbons as pets further threatens their dwindling populations.
