The primates broke loose from Alpha Genesis in Yemassee, Beaufort County in South Carolina.

The company confirmed 43 rhesus macaque primates escaped from an enclosure at one of the company's facilities.

The Yemassee Police Department said on Thursday that traps with bait were set up and thermal imaging cameras were being used in an effort to capture the monkeys.

Yep. Immediately what I thought of as well. Must be a shitty facility if monkeys can somehow just escape like this.
