PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — Late Wednesday, the Muskingum County Sheriff said he believed none of the animals that escaped from the animal farm in Zanesville, Ohio, were still on the loose.

Earlier, it was thought a monkey carrying the herpes B virus was still at large, but now Sheriff Matt Lutz thinks the animal was eaten by one of the cats.

Owner Terry Thompson is believed to have opened the cages for the animals and then shot and killed himself. He left no note.

Schools were closed and there was no mail delivery, as authorities were on order to shoot and kill the exotic animals
