Tridge summary

UK supermarkets have stopped selling Thai coconut milk due to claims of monkey labor, leading to a potential ban on Thai coconut products. The People's Organization for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) is pushing for the avoidance of such practices. This situation has raised concerns about the economic impact on Thai farmers and the potential for importing from countries that do not use monkey labor. The Thai government's democratic status and human rights practices may also be under threat in this trade dispute. The coconut harvest involves monkeys, which are well-cared-for and trained to identify ripe coconuts for harvest. The subtotal drop in coconut prices, triggered by the ban, has led to concerns about the future of this trade and the livelihoods of those dependent on it.
