43 Monkeys Escape South Carolina Research Facility: Authorities on the Hunt
A group of 43 young rhesus macaques has escaped from Alpha Genesis, a South Carolina research facility, after a keeper inadvertently left their enclosure open. The local police are actively seeking the monkeys, asking residents to secure their homes and report any sightings. Despite being young and untested, capturing the wanderers is complicated by adverse weather conditions. The CEO of Alpha Genesis expressed his frustration but remains hopeful for their safe return. This incident is not isolated, as previous escapes from the facility have occurred in recent years.
