2 more escaped monkeys recaptured and enjoying peanut butter and jelly sandwiches in South Carolina

Authorities say two monkeys have been returned to a South Carolina compound that breeds the animals for medical research. Police say that as of Tuesday evening, just 11 of the 43 monkeys that escaped the Alpha Genesis facility in Yemassee on Nov. 6 remain outside the compound. The Rhesus macaques escaped after an employee didn’t fully lock their enclosure. Police say the company told them the two monkeys recaptured Tuesday were eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and appeared in good health. Alpha Genesis has said that efforts to recover all the monkeys will continue.
