Serial-escapee monkey nabbed after latest bid

Posted for the comedic properties…I’m still laughing!

Oliver, a white-faced capuchiun, will have his cage triple-chained hereafter

TUPELO, Miss. - Oliver apparently has learned to pick locks, making his second breakout from behind bars in less than a month.

On Wednesday, however, the white-faced capuchin monkey was back at the Tupelo Buffalo Park and Zoo, and this time his cage has been secured with triple chains and locks.

“There’s one on top, one on the bottom and one in the middle,” park manager Kirk Nemecheck said. “If he gets out again, someone is letting him out.”

This is Oliver’s third escape. His first was about six years ago.

Nemecheck is getting fed up.

“I’m getting titanium locks next time,” he said. “I’m tired of chasing a monkey.”
