Sigiriya summit path monkeys grabbed my friend's sunglasses — zip pockets enough or leave the phone in the bag?

Sigiriya monkeys are bold where snacks and shiny things appear. No food in hand, no bottles sticking out, phone on a short strap or deep zip pocket, sunglasses on a cord or in the pack before the steep bits. A chest-worn zip pack is better than a swingy shoulder bag. Do not tease or feed. Leaving every phone with a driver works only if you trust that person and accept no photos — most visitors keep one phone secured, not dangling for selfies beside a macaque. Same habit helps at Temple of the Tooth grounds and picnic spots.
