After three days “on the lam,” CBS News reports that a wayward baboon -a veritable local celebrity- has been tranquilized without incident.

Many experts believe the baboon to be one of roughly one hundred and fifty in captivity from nearby Six Flags Great Adventure’s Monkey Jungle in Jackson Township.

Some, however, are not convinced, pointing out TMZ’s story that Jersey Shore’s Vinny Guadagnino recently left the show -“for good”- citing differences with the cast and homesickness.

“We are virtually certain that it is ours," Kristen Siebeneicher, the park's communications director, insisted to CBS New York on Friday night. She added that all Great Adventure baboons are vaccinated, fenced in and implanted with microchips.

“We’re not going to know for sure until we get to examine the subject much more closely.”
