Tulane has said it wasn&#8217;t transporting the monkeys and they do not belong to the university. The remaining 13 monkeys arrived at their original destination last week, according to Tulane. <\/p>\n<p>PreLabs, which describes itself on its website as a biomedical research support organization, said in a statement Monday that a vehicle transporting its non-human primates was involved in the crash and the animals were being lawfully transported to a licensed research facility. It stressed that the monkeys weren&#8217;t carrying any known diseases, but asked the public not to approach them as they were likely frightened and disoriented.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are cooperating with authorities and reviewing all safety procedures to ensure the continued well-being of both the animals and the community,&#8221; PreLabs said.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/11\/05\/6d38ff18-5267-42d2-9b8b-a141ea814ded\/thumbnail\/620x413\/7fa653abbce11a9da47a8978b9484351\/ap25303646134586.jpg#\" alt=\"Mississippi Monkey Escape \" height=\"413\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/11\/05\/6d38ff18-5267-42d2-9b8b-a141ea814ded\/thumbnail\/620x413\/7fa653abbce11a9da47a8978b9484351\/ap25303646134586.jpg 1x, https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/11\/05\/6d38ff18-5267-42d2-9b8b-a141ea814ded\/thumbnail\/1240x826\/48249d6115cf3ac4742270f3ffd37a0e\/ap25303646134586.jpg 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">This photo provided by Scotty Ray Boyd shows an escaped monkey sitting in the grass Tuesday, Oct. 28, 2025, in Heidelberg, Miss.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Scotty Ray Boyd \/ AP<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Jasper County Sheriff Randy Johnson also said the monkeys were not infectious, citing Tulane officials, despite the truck&#8217;s occupants previously warning that the monkeys were dangerous and harboring diseases. However, Johnson said the animals would still need to be &#8220;neutralized&#8221; because they were aggressive.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The primates in question were not carrying any diseases and had received recent checkups confirming that they were pathogen-free,&#8221; said Andrew Yawn, a spokesperson for Tulane, in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>The monkeys&#8217; escape is the latest glimpse into the secretive industry of animal research and the processes that allow key details of what happened to be kept from the public. The Mississippi Highway Patrol has said it was investigating the cause of the crash, which occurred about 100 miles from Mississippi&#8217;s state capital, Jackson.<\/p>\n<p>Rhesus monkeys, like the ones involved in this incident, have brown fur with red faces and ears, as well as notably expressive faces. They were first imported to the United States for biomedical research in laboratories in the 1970s, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/neprimateconservancy.org\/rhesus-macaque\/\" target=\"_blank\"
