The final holdouts of a group of monkeys that escaped from a research facility in South Carolina over two months ago have been safely recaptured, the Yemassee Police Department announced on Friday.

Authorities in South Carolina said Friday the last four of 43 escaped monkeys have been recaptured after two months living in the woods, weathering a rare snowstorm and being temped back into captivity by peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

Finally, all 43 of the rhesus macaques have been found, according to the primate research facility in Yemassee, S.C., from which they fled in November.
