Multiple monkeys are on the loose in St. Louis. And AI generated images are complicating the effort to find them. The Vervet monkeys were first spotted Thursday near a park in the northern part of the city. Health Department spokesperson Willie Springer said the discovery has prompted “rumor after rumor.” People have reported capturing the monkeys, even posting fake pictures online to bolster the claim. But Springer said that as of Monday, the monkeys remained at large. It’s unclear who owns the monkeys, how they got loose or exactly how many there are.
