This is believed to have happened in South Carolina two years ago. There were like 40 macaque monkeys that escaped an enclosure. Most were recovered but a few were still loose. The r/aliens sub thought this instance were these macaques. They aren't very big but strong for their size like all monkeys, and would be very capable of snapping branches to scare off threats.

You can see one at around 2:24. The limbs being broke are not as big as he stated. I think he was scared. The monkeys were just pissed off and throwing down branches as a defense measure.

I saw the same thing when visiting Panama with Howler monkeys. They don't like people or animals up in their shit. LOL
