Horrific treatment of monkeys from Asia in U.S. lab

[Guest guest]

Check out http://www.covancecruelty.com which is the campaign PeTA just

launched after an under-cover investigation at Covance. The photographs are

very disturbing.

 

In the past ten years, Covance has imported 50,554 monkeys and almost all

were from Asian countries (all were species indigenous to Asia).

 

See http://www.aesop-project.org/Primate_Trade/Primate_Imports.htm for a

complete listing of primate imports to the United States. Out of the six

top primate exporting countries, five are in Asia.
