Authorities are still searching for a monkey Monday after it went missing over the weekend.

The Livingston County Sheriff’s Dept issued a missing exotic animal notice Sunday afternoon for a 6-year-old male Capuchin Monkey around 6-7 pounds in size.

The pet was last seen the afternoon of May 10 near Liv 2313 and Liv 2316. The owner had reported that the monkey is a pet, wearing a leash, and is very friendly & tame.

It’s the second year in a row a Capuchin Monkey has gone missing in Livingston County.  Last year Chillicothe Police were forced to shoot and kill a rogue monkey after his owner failed five times to shoot the animal with a tranquilizer gun.

The Livingston County Sheriff’s Department warns that any exotic pet can be dangerous.

If someone spots the monkey they are asked to call the 24-hour dispatch line at 660-646-2121 and the owner will be notified.
