Mykel, a colobus monkey that escaped the Singapore Zoo, has been recaptured and returned.

Mykel, a black-and-white colobus monkey that escaped from the Singapore Zoo six months ago, was recently captured in Choa Chu Kang and returned safely to the zoo. The Mandai Wildlife Group is reviewing and enhancing its safety protocols following the incident, which may have been influenced by changes within Mykel’s social group. The zoo has modified the perimeter fence and provided additional training for staff to prevent future escapes.
