WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Kali, the Goeldi's monkey that was discovered stolen from  the Palm Beach Zoo, has been found safe, according to police.

  • Kali was found to be missing on Monday
  • Police did not say how the monkey was found

The West Palm Beach Police Department stated on its social media pages that the 12-year-old monkey was found.

Police believe someone stole Kali, who weighs about a pound, at around 1 a.m. on Monday after zookeepers discovered while doing rounds that the mesh on her enclosure had been cut open.

Police are now trying to identify a person they saw on surveillance video walking along the zoo's perimeter Monday.

Zoo officials say people want a monkey like Kali for illegal pet trade.

Officials did not mention how or where Kali was found.
