Two emperor tamarin monkeys missing from the Dallas Zoo have been found, the zoo says.
“We are thrilled beyond belief to share that our two emperor tamarin monkeys have been found,” the zoo said in a statement. Dallas police located the animals early Tuesday evening, the zoo said, without immediately releasing details about how they were found. The zoo earlier said the animals were believed to have been stolen Monday. Police “called our team to come secure and transport the tamarins back to the Zoo,” the zoo said.
The closure was later extended through Wednesday due to an ice storm impacting the area, the zoo said. This was 4th time zoo discovered possible tampering this month, it says This is the fourth time this month that the zoo has discovered its animals or their enclosures may have been tampered with, including the “unusual” circumstances surrounding the death of a vulture last week, according to the zoo.
