Authorities in South Carolina have successfully located a wayward primate that had been on the loose in the town of Walterboro. The 15-year-old Japanese Macaque, named Bradley, had escaped from its owner's residence and was found safe on May 27 after several days of search efforts. The Colleton County Sheriff's Office had announced the search on social media, and the owner had hired additional help to corral the animal. Bradley had been living in the area for almost six years before the incident. The monkey is now back home.
