Greg Westergaard, CEO of Alpha Genesis, told CBS News on Friday that while they have not captured any of the animals, the monkeys are staying close to the facility and are "being goofy monkeys jumping back and forth playing with each other." "It's kind of like a playground situation here," he said. Westergaard said the company has put out baited traps but the monkeys are not going inside them yet. "They're jumping down and taking the food and then jumping back up on the fence and the tree line," he added. "They're watching us the same way we're watching them." He acknowledged that it would be a long process to get them back. He said that chasing the monkeys would only spook them and make them run away. "We've got them very close," Westergaard said. "This is all like what we want to see."
