Infact verdict: Mixed (50/100).

The claims about Lop Buri, Thailand, involve cultural and environmental aspects related to macaques. No external evidence was found for any of the claims, which limits the ability to verify them. The claim about a young girl using an airsoft gun to deter monkeys is unusual and lacks corroboration. The cultural belief that macaques are disciples of Hanuman is plausible but unverified. The claim about the growing macaque population is reasonable but also lacks evidence. Overall, these claims remain unverified due to the absence of supporting evidence.
