CEO Greg Westergaard explained the frustration of locating the missing monkeys, emphasizing that you can’t chase them because they scatter. He stated, "It really is just waiting... and we would like to have them back sooner or later." This highlights the difficulties faced by authorities and the research facility in safely recapturing the primates while addressing public safety concerns.
Police reassured the public about the escaped monkeys, stating they consist of "very young females weighing approximately 6-7 lbs" that have never been used for testing. Authorities emphasized, "the animals are too young to carry disease," aiming to alleviate fears regarding potential health risks posed by the escape.
