   HEIDELBERG, Miss. (AP) - Monkeys being transported on a Mississippi   
   highway escaped captivity Tuesday after the truck carrying them   
   overturned, according to law enforcement.   
      
   All but one of the escaped monkeys were killed, the Jasper County   
   Sheriff's Department said in a post on Facebook, warning that the   
   monkeys were "aggressive." It was not clear how many monkeys were   
   originally in the truck.   
      
   The truck was carrying Rhesus monkeys, which typically weigh around 16   
   pounds (7.7 kilograms) and are among the most medically studied animals   
   on the planet.   
      
   They were being housed at the Tulane University National Biomedical   
   Research Center in New Orleans, Louisiana, which routinely provides   
   primates to scientific research organizations, according to the   
   university. In a statement, Tulane University said the monkeys do not   
   belong to the university, and they were not being transported by the   
   university.   
      
   It was not clear who owns the monkeys, who was transporting them or   
   where they were being taken.   
      
   Video shows monkeys crawling through tall grass on the side of   
   Interstate 59 just north of Heidelberg, Mississippi, with wooden crates   
   labeled "live animals" crumpled and strewn about.
