Weren’t they zebras that escaped?
Maryland has a huge NIH Primate Center between NIH and Fort Detrick.
Tucked well away in the country side. Traveled along the two lane country road for quite a ways without seeing buildings or even an entry point. Well maintained white board farm type fencing...upon which on two occassions a dozen or so buzzards were perched...as though waiting. Never seen so many in one spot just waiting.
With the mention of the monkeys being on the way to a CDC approved facility, it’s possible that was/is the destination. And who has ties to NIH?
Just sayin’
Yes, you are correct. The ones who escaped last summer were zebras. Somebody near Upper Marlboro had a slew of them.
I guess I got confused, because the giraffe is my favorite African animal.
