Because sometimes we need a light story to retain our sanity...
A monkey in a pink tutu that slipped out of a Missouri home was captured just before a winter storm slammed the state.
The Jefferson county sheriffs office described the apprehension of the primate in a Facebook post as Bananas.
The spider monkey was spotted on Friday afternoon at the intersection of two highways near the town of Otto, just to the south of the St Louis area. The monkey had been staying at a nearby home when it managed to open a door and get outside.
