DALLAS — The Dallas Zoo has alerted police after staff discovered two monkeys were missing from their enclosure Monday morning.
According to zoo spokeswoman Kari Streiber, two emperor tamarin monkeys were unaccounted for as of 3:50 p.m., and said it is “clear the habitat had been intentionally compromised.”
Streiber said since the monkeys are expected to stay close to home, they believe the fact police and staff have not found them means they have been stolen.
