Former Bieber Monkey Out of Quarantine in Germany

Bieber failed to produce the required vaccination and import papers for the monkey and its ownership was transferred to the German state May 21.

Mally the monkey, Justin Bieber's former pet, has emerged from quarantine at his new German home three months after the pop star brought him to the country.

The 6-month-old capuchin monkey moved Wednesday into a new enclosure at the Serengeti Park in Hodenhagen, in northern Germany.

Mally will soon be introduced to the zoo's other capuchin monkeys. Zoo manager Fabrizio Sepe said: "Mally is a clever little guy and we're confident that he will settle in quickly."

Mally was transferred to the zoo last month from a Munich animal shelter where he had been since being seized by German customs March 28.

Bieber failed to produce the required vaccination and import papers after arriving for a European tour. Mally's ownership was transferred to the German state May 21.
