Will the Pa Game Commission now begin to issue a small game license for monkeys? WNEP had a story on this AM about it and showed some footage of the woods and shots being fired. A few are still on the loose and armed and dangerous! Do not approach and call state police if you see one!


saw that all 4 have been accounted for. they "euthanized" 3 and had one alive. the news did not say why they needed to kill them. Interesting the guy from PA Game Commission said they had to warn people not to approach them, as in the past they had people taking animals into their house when the people had no idea what kind of animal it was.

Story is now these monkeys were on the way to a quarantine lab in Florida after being flown in from Africa and the monkeys were considered a health risk . Flew them into NY to truck to labs in Fl why not fly them into FL

+1. You would have thought after the incident in Reston, VA in the late 80's, that would be the case.:rolleyes:

Not sure what kind of monkeys they are, but they can be deceivingly dangerous.

They were headed to Missouri
So there are no airports in Missouri that they had to be trucked from NYC. This whole thing is beyond absurd . CDC has admitted that they have asked anyone with any type of contact at the scene report any cold like symptoms if they develop them

Friday night, Newswatch 16 spoke with Michelle Fallon of Danville, who saw the entire accident. She jumped into action, helping both drivers and the loads they were carrying.

"I walk up back on the hill, and this guy tells me, 'Oh, he's hauling cats. I said, 'Oh.' So I go over to look in the crate, and there's this green cloth over it. So I peel it back, I stick my finger in there and go 'kitty, kitty.' It pops its head up, and it's a monkey," Fallon said.

Fallon was contacted Saturday by the CDC and was told to monitor herself for any cold-like symptoms.

She shared the letter from the CDC with Newswatch 16; it reads in part that "the surviving monkeys will be quarantined and will be monitored for infectious diseases for at least 31 days before their release."

This is how these sci-fi disaster, end of the world movies start!

I saw this. Just when you think the conspiracy theorists are going to run out of material, something like this happens!

She was told that he was “hauling cats”? What?

She then sticks her finger in a crate with a scared animal that she cannot see.

Not sure how some people stay alive.

The monkeys all wanted to go to Knoebels.... ;) ;)

There was a case like that in Columbus many, many years ago where a couple of Monkeys got out of the Columbus Zoo. Jack Hanna wrote a book about it....

I think one got as far as Youngstown....

There is something about this gal that always gets my attention. She is very pretty, doesn't need a face over with makeup to be beautiful.
