Local Monkey in Mishima Japan Makes Another Daunting Escape,WHIPS response

http://www.fox8.com/news/nationworld/sns-ap-as-japan-marauding-monkey,0,3162313.story
    

              A Macague monkey named Lucky escaped from his cage in Mishima, Japan on January 24. The male monkey resides in a nature park within Shizuoka Prefecture. Apparently a keeper was cleaning Lucky's cage and he decided to go AWOL. This is not the first time this has occured, last year the monkey went missing for up to 2 months within Central Japan. Lucky terrorized many towns and bit up to 120 people. This time they caught a break and he was recovered a day after the attempted AWOL. It was reported that the monkey was easy to capture, officials discovered him at a public park, simply called his name and, the monkey responded. Well i guess the park will keep an eye on Lucky from now on seeing as how lucky they have been in recovering him. I believe this puts a new meaning to the words going ape.
