Bangkok Starts to Clear Lizards from Popular Park

A park official catches a monitor lizard with a lasso in Lumpini park in Bangkok on September 20, 2016.

But with their population soaring out of control to some 400, city officials are on a mission to bait and bag some of the meaty reptiles known as “hia” – a noun which doubles as the most powerful swear word in Thai.
