A crack team of MacGyver monkeys escaped from a Japanese laboratory by using tree branches to catapult themselves over a 17-foot-high electrified fence.
Sadly, the daredevil monkeys found themselves petrified in the face of sweet, terrible freedom, and hung around the facility until they were recaptured.
“Fortunately, they stayed by the fence after escaping as they probably wanted to stay near to the other monkeys so we managed to recapture them all.”But we were extremely surprised by the intelligence and the power they used in order to escape.”
One hopes that these Michael Schofield monkeys will be galvanized by this experience, and that their next attempt will see them escape the bonds of captivity entirely.
