4 monkeys remain free nearly 2 weeks after dozens escaped a South Carolina compound

Four monkeys remain free nearly two weeks after a group of 43 escaped from a South Carolina compound that breeds them for medical research, authorities said. Two more rhesus macaques were trapped Monday outside the Alpha Genesis facility in Yemassee, bringing the total of recovered monkeys to 39, chief executive Greg Westergaard said in a statement relayed by police in a social media post. The monkeys caught Monday were in good health, and the others continue to thrive, Westergaard said.
