Permission was given for the capture and relocation of the PBM2 and HKM1 male baboons on Friday 20 May.
The baboons were successfully captured and kept at a holding facility over the weekend.
HKM1 was released on Monday 23 May and PBM2 on Tuesday the 24th. Both baboons were released in their home catchments and are doing well.
“We are currently working on keeping the troops out of the urban edge by means of the virtual fence,” said Dr Annelie Rabie, Mayor of the Overstrand.
“We would also like to thank the public for their support and assistance in making this capture and release possible.”
