Police in Horry County, South Carolina, said this week that they are searching for two missing emus that have been evading capture for months: "We are not emu-sed."

Just eight monkeys remain free from the group who more than a week ago broke out of a South Carolina compound that breeds the primates for medical research, authorities said. Three more Rhesus macaques were recaptured Wednesday outside the Alpha Genesis facility in Yemassee,

There was animal mayhem in South Carolina as two emus went on the loose – while eight escaped monkeys were already at large. Reports of two large emus running riot in the city of Loris, in Horry County, SC, followed an incident last week when 43 monkeys escaped an Alpha Genesis facility in Beaufort County, SC, the Yemassee Police Department said.
