Cops are warning residents in rural South Carolina to shut their doors and windows after at least 43 monkeys escaped from a bio-research lab.
The rhesus macaques slipped out of an Alpha Genesis facility in Yemassee — which is just off I-95 in the south of the state — on Wednesday night.
“We want to assure the community that there is no health risk associated with these animals,” the Yemassee Police Department said.
Residents are being told not to approach the loose monkeys and instead call 911 and report the sighting.
It’s unclear how the primates managed to break out.

They might have been being used to test the effect of lab made virus for all we know.
Monkeys were members of SQL (Squirrel Lives Matter), and they are out for Peanut Justice.
(whoops, caption!)
Are they sure it wasn’t 12 monkeys?
This is a funny story. We live very close to this area. So, our granddaughter, seventeen is staying with us while her parents are out of town. She was on her way to school this AM, called and said, “ Lock everything up, just heard that FORTY INMATES have escaped from a place close to us and are searching for them. They are warning people to lock door and windows”. My husband immediately told her to turn around and come back to our house right away.
I checked the news of course, it was PRIMATES not INMATES.
Monkeys are disgusting. They commit nuisance everywhere, steal things, and throw feces when irritated. Apes are worse. Apes to all that AND eat your face off.
Probably infected with monkey pox. Just don’t have sex with any monkeys you come across.
Has everyone had their Marburg vaccine?
Everybody’s got somethin’ to hide except me and my monkey.
Monkeypox. Wear a mask.
There is no such thing as coincidence
One or two ,.. perhaps
But 40 ? Balderdash !
They were going to vote for Camela !
If you see Dustin Hoffman in a biohazard suit, run!
You are delusional
If they can make it to NYC they can get free rooms if a 5 Star hotel and a free credit card if they promise to vote democrat next election.
28 days later....
Not sure how they will drink. They left behind their rhesus cups.
Too convenient. Big difference between escaped and let out to spread the latest deadly disease.
Unfortunately, they’re two days late to vote for Kamala.
The movie will be named Escape From Alphatraz.
