EUTAWVILLE, S.C. — A pet monkey is reunited with its owner after escaping from a South Carolina festival.
The Eutaw Village Festival posted a picture of the spider monkey on Saturday, saying the animal, named Ava, slipped away wearing a collar and a leash.
According to The Post and Courier, Ava roamed free in Orangeburg County for a day before she was found by a quick-thinking town clerk who reeled her in with a cup of hot coffee.
