All Escaped South Carolina Monkeys Recaptured (Or Are They?)
Following a two-month search, all 43 rhesus macaque monkeys that escaped from the Alpha Genesis Primate Research Center in Yemassee, South Carolina have been safely recovered. The last four monkeys were recaptured this week and appear healthy. The escape occurred due to unsecured doors, and the young, female primates were never used in research. Local police and the Alpha Genesis facility expressed gratitude for community assistance in the successful recapture effort.
