It looks like we are in for a scary future. Baboons have teamed up to escape from a biomedical facility. Lets just hope they don't enslave us for treating them like bacteria.
Four baboons held at a Texas biomedical research facility briefly escaped on Saturday after figuring out how to use a large barrel to break free.
The baboons live at the Southwest National Primate Research Center, which is part of Texas Biomedical Research Institute in San Antonio. The facility houses around 2,500 animals — including about 1,100 baboons — used in studies about obesity, heart disease and insulin resistance, among others.
The escapees were inside an open-air enclosure, part of a group of 133 male baboons not currently being used for any tests.
