Monkeys that escaped a South Carolina research facility finally caught months later

Alpha Genesis' website said it conducts research projects for government, university and private industry clients with cynomolgus, rhesus, and capuchin monkeys.

Months of searching ensued in a remote, wooded area surrounding the Yemassee facility. Alpha Genesis didn't respond to USA TODAY’s email and phone requests on Saturday.

In South Carolina, 43 rhesus macaques escaped from a research facility an hour west of Charleston in 2024.

The rhesus macaques were of Chinese- or Indian-origin. Small in stature, they can thrive in a variety of habitats and climates, according to the Wisconsin National Primate Research Center.
