Monkeys and Emus on the Loose: Chaos in South Carolina! 🦢

Summary:

  1. Monkey Escape
    8 monkeys remain at large after escaping from a U.S. research lab, adding to the 35 already recaptured from the original 43 that escaped.

  2. Emus on the Loose
    Now, two emus have joined the escape list, running wild after breaking loose three months ago, with their owner pleading for help on social media.

  3. Efforts to Recapture
    The emus’ owner is working with local law enforcement and hopes to use a tranquilizer to capture them, as they’re difficult to catch due to their long necks and flightlessness.

  4. Monkey Behavior
    Witnesses reported the escaped monkeys are playful and curious, though their recapture efforts are complicated by drone interference.

  5. Past Escapes
    This isn’t the first time monkeys have escaped from the lab. Previous incidents include 19 monkeys in 2016 and 26 monkeys in 2014.
