Search teams are using thermal-imaging drones as keepers warn the macaque is not dangerous but should not be approached.
- Honshu, a seven-year-old Japanese macaque who escaped from the Highland Wildlife Park in Kincraig, Scotland, was safely recaptured after five days on the loose.
- The monkey was spotted in a local resident's garden eating bird food before animal care teams successfully tranquilized him with a dart.
- Thermal imaging drones operated by search crews played a critical role in tracking the primate's movements across the surrounding countryside.
- Park officials confirmed that Honshu was brought back to the facility, examined by veterinary staff, and reported to be in good health.
- The escaped macaque is being gradually reintroduced to his enclosure following a brief isolation period to ensure his safe return to the troop.
