Monkey escapes from Beech Mountain and runs around the neighborhood

A male mandrill monkey has been loose in the area around Safaripark Beekse Bergen for several days after escaping over the weekend. The park confirmed the animal is not dangerous to humans or pets. The monkey reportedly swam across a canal to escape, something the zoo had previously believed impossible. The animal has been spotted multiple times near the park, including in the nearby village of Esbeek, where a woman captured it on video. Park officials advise people not to attempt to catch or approach the monkey but instead report sightings via a phone number on the park's website. The monkey is expected to be caught using sedation. This is the second escape at Beekse Bergen in a short period, following an earlier incident involving a cheetah in May.

Bias read (Center): The article covers an escaped animal at a safari park, which is not inherently politically charged. It provides factual information about the situation, including quotes from the park's spokesperson and details about previous incidents. There is no evident framing or slant toward any particular side
