Authorities say five more monkeys have been returned to a South Carolina compound that breeds the animals for medical research.

Officials say one of 43 monkeys bred for medical research that escaped a compound in South Carolina has been recovered unharmed. Police said in a statement on Saturday that many of the others are still located a few yards from the property.

Locals were urged to lock windows and doors and not to interact with the monkeys.

More than half of the 43 monkeys were recovered unharmed.

Police in Yemassee, Beaufort County, said the animals escaped from Alpha Genesis, a business that provides “nonhuman primate products and bio-research services,” according to its website.
