Wildlife Center Apologizes for ‘Human Error’ After Monkey Escape
Visitor Negligence Allowed Eight Monkeys to Escape
A wildlife center in Texas is apologizing for a lapse in security that allowed a group of eight monkeys to escape from their enclosure on Saturday.
The incident occurred after a visitor left a gate to the enclosure open. The monkeys, which were not dangerous, quickly made their way out of their enclosure and into a nearby wooded area.
Staff at the wildlife center were quickly alerted to the escape, and they began a search for the missing monkeys. Eight of the monkeys were quickly found and returned to their enclosure. However, two monkeys remain at large.
Wildlife Center Issues Apology and Warning
The wildlife center has issued an apology for the escape, and they have promised to take steps to prevent a similar incident from happening again.
“We are very sorry for this incident,” said a spokesperson for the wildlife center. “We are taking this matter very seriously, and we are committed to ensuring that something like this does not happen again.”
The wildlife center is also urging the public to be aware of the importance of following the rules and regulations when visiting wildlife centers.
“It is important for visitors to follow the rules and regulations when visiting wildlife centers,” said the spokesperson. “These rules are in place for the safety of both the animals and the visitors.”
