The rhesus macaque, which is native to parts of India and China, is banned in Japan, and therefore categorised as an "invasive alien species."

The snow monkeys were believed to have escaped from their enclosure and bred with the wild monkeys outside the facility.

The monkeys had "to be killed to protect the indigenous environment," an official told the Japan Times.

However, a ministry official from the Office for Alien Species Management called the culling "unavoidable."

"Keeping a government-designated invasive alien species is unlawful, if one cannot look after them in an absolutely secure facility in which an animal can never escape from," the official said.

The zoo has since pledged to tighten the security of the enclosure.
