Oliver is back on the loose in Tupelo Mississippi. He supposedly picked his lock again. Oh well, we will get him eventually. Just as long as he doesn't wonder onto a four lane highway.

A monkey (capuchin) named Oliver escaped from the Tupelo Buffalo Park and Zoo in Tupelo on the 13th. For the second this week. The first time he went missing for 6 days. However, he was found about an hour ago, less than 24 hours later. DONT WORRY I HAVENT GONE CRAZY!!!LOL

Not only is there a myspace page - Oliver was on every news channel in town and in the paper --- he has gotten more media than last year's playoff game in this town (hangs head in shame) - we'll fix that this year with the new staff.
Yep - Oliver busted out with his girlfriend this time - the kid is getting a rap sheet now - kidnapping.
Another escape, another catch

TUPELO – Oliver is back home again, and this time he’s tripled-chained into his cage.
The white-faced capuchin monkey who escaped Monday morning from the Tupelo Buffalo Park and Zoo was caught about 2:30 p.m. Tuesday.
It was the monkey’s second flight this summer and his third in the past six years. He had apparently picked the lock to his pen to escape.
Now, park officials have put three chains with locks on his cage, said park manager Kirk Nemecheck.
"There’s one on top, one on the bottom and one in the middle," Nemecheck said. "If he gets out again, someone is letting him out."
Oliver was found about four miles from the park in a yard off Endville Road. Park officials said he probably followed the railroad tracks to get there.
"The police showed up and helped us," he said. "We surrounded him, a guy jumped on him and got his hand bit, but we got him.
......... welcome to Tupelo (((( and you thought it was all about Elvis))))
