| USA TODAY investigation: The release of deadly bacteria from high-security laboratory in Louisiana has raised concerns that it has spread to soil and water outside the facility. Federal and state officials have spent weeks trying to determine how the potential bioterror agent - which can live and grow in soil and water -- was released from the Tulane National Primate Research Center north of New Orleans.

While limited tests haven't detected the bacteria outdoors, some officials are pressing behind the scenes for more action because monkeys kept in outdoor pens away from the lab have been sickened, an examination by USA TODAY reveals.
