ATLANTA -- Authorities at a metro Atlanta research lab are alerting neighbors and police to be on the lookout for a monkey that has gone missing.
Research center spokeswoman Lisa Newbern said Thursday the specially bred 2-year-old female rhesus monkey turned up missing during an annual veterinary exam last week.
Gwinnett County police have been alerted, and Newbern said she's also notified neighborhood associations nearby to look for the monkey after she went missing from the Yerkes National Primate Research Center field station in Lawrenceville.
Newbern said the monkey wasn't infected with any disease as part of a study. She said the animal was specially bred without the herpes B virus, which is common to the species.
Newbern said anyone who sees a monkey should call authorities immediately and not approach the animal.
