Authorities say Banana Sam was located Saturday evening in Stern Grove Park.
Police say in a release that a park visitor noticed the 17-year-old primate and lured him into his backpack.
He called police who retrieved Banana-Sam and found him in apparent good health. He was returned to the zoo.
Banana Sam's theft Thursday prompted the zoo to boost security and keep the other 17 squirrel monkeys indoors.
He was taken after thieves cut through a gate and made holes in the mesh surrounding the monkey exhibit.
A $5,000 reward had been offered for his safe return.
