Morgan ( Monkey) Island

We went this past week and noticed fewer monkeys. We joked that it must have been feeding time somewhere else on the island.

Then I found this article,

LandTech Appointed Receiver of Morgan Island, SC Thursday, 03 May 2012 00:00

LandTech Asset Management, LLC was appointed Receiver by the S.C. Circuit Court for a 58-acre island located on the Coosaw River within the Sheldon Township near Beaufort, SC. Activities during the receivership period will include repair and maintenance of a causeway to the island, site security, construction and maintenance of roads to gain access to the causeway and island, and verification of regulatory entitlements. LandTech is headquartered in Columbia, SC and performs similar receivership services and asset management work in seven states.

Is Monkey Island over? If anyone hasn’t experienced the Monkeys it may be time before something changes.

I’ve been to the dock 4 times this year and only once saw Monkeys and it was only 6. They are smart, if someone was being a jerk and scaring them, they would become people shy.

Was just looking for some more info on the LandTech deal. That’s got me curious, maybe they are just taking over maintenance? They have 3600 breeding pairs or used to on the Island. The babies are sold World Wide for experimentation.

Interesting I thought Morgan Island was owned by SCDNR. There is not a causeway to it either. not sure what that public notice is referring to.
