Authorities in Yemassee, South Carolina, are conducting a search for 43 Rhesus macaque monkeys that escaped from the Alpha Genesis research facility. The monkeys are described as young females, who are not a disease risk. Police Chief Gregory Alexander and Alpha Genesis staff are attempting to recapture the animals using traps and thermal imaging. Residents are advised to secure their doors and windows, and report any sightings without attempting to capture the monkeys themselves. This incident marks a repeated escape occurrence at Alpha Genesis, which has faced scrutiny over previous escapes.
