Rode Kruis over aftocht Ter Apel: ‘De regering moet dit oplossen, niet wij’

A crested mangabey monkey that escaped from Beekse Bergen safari park in the Netherlands over a month ago has been successfully recaptured. The animal was found on Wednesday inside a capture cage near the Brabant region. The monkey had been on the loose for more than a month, prompting an extended search effort by park staff and authorities. Crested mangabeys are a species of Old World monkey native to Africa, and their escape from a safari park poses both a public safety concern and a risk to the animal itself. The successful capture marks the end of a prolonged incident that had drawn local attention. The monkey has now been returned to the park.

A crested mangabey monkey that escaped from Beekse Bergen safari park in the Netherlands more than a month ago has been successfully recaptured and returned to the park. The monkey was found on Wednesday inside a capture cage set up near the Brabant region. The escape had prompted an extended search operation that lasted over a month, raising concerns about the animal's welfare and public safety in the surrounding area. Crested mangabeys are a species of Old World monkey native to African forests, making their survival in a Dutch suburban environment a notable challenge. The animal's safe return is considered a relief for both park staff and local residents. Beekse Bergen is a well-known safari and wildlife park in the Noord-Brabant province of the Netherlands.

The Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) of Curaçao has released preliminary findings from its 2025 Social Survey, conducted during September and November 2025. The data reveals that 53.6% of family households on the island do not earn enough income to cover their essential financial obligations. The Social Survey functions similarly to an Omnibus study, collecting broad socioeconomic data across the population. The findings paint a concerning picture of household financial vulnerability affecting more than half of Curaçao's families. This type of survey provides policymakers and social organizations with critical data to assess living standards and design targeted economic interventions. The results are described as preliminary, suggesting additional detailed findings will follow in a more comprehensive release.
