The fl monkeys I knew about, they’re mostly confined in silver spring state park with the usual suspects braying whenever anyone wants to get rid of them. The state contracted to remove 1000 of them a couple of years ago, but the animal lovers got that shut down before they could get them all. I didn’t know about the SC monkeys.
