The baboon was flying into San Antonio from Chicago to go live at a local animal sanctuary.
Responding Officers had to corner the primate in the baggage claim area in order to recapture the monkey.
Now, according to Police sources, they’re finally going to make sure they get Rafiki safely to his destination:
Officials from the zoo are now onsite to ensure his safety and wellbeing as he continues his journey to his new home at the primate sanctuary.”
