Dear Taxpayer,
We still haven't heard back -- and things are so much worse than we thought.
The NIH just renewed funding to one of the most heinous animal-testing labs in the country.
Foreign objects drilled into her skull. Restrained by her head. Injected with toxins. Crippled. Then killed, when she could have been retired to a sanctuary.
Taxpayer, not only are their “experiments” horrifically cruel, but they’re grossly incompetent to boot!
I just uncovered more documents, including the one above, showing that the white coats running this lab simply “forgot” to remove surgical equipment from lab monkeys after surgery... ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS!
You read that right, Taxpayer.
They actually left surgical equipment IN the monkeys' body, which caused incredibly painful infections.
You can't make this stuff up!
Imagine going through surgery, only discover the surgeon left a scalpel in your body!
What's even more astounding is it took them FOUR MONTHS to discover one such instance -- and only after the monkey showed signs of illness (gee, I wonder why?)!
Taxpayer, these bumbling bureaucrats have no business performing surgery on living creatures -- let alone taking nearly $6 MILLION in tax dollars in the process!
That's why I need you to dig deep and give whatever you can afford:
That's why my boss, president and founder Anthony Bellotti, is also matching EVERY GIFT dollar-for-dollar to get it done.
But we only have until MIDNIGHT tonight to save the NIH 9 monkeys.

Taxpayer —if we've ever needed your help, it's right now.
9 MORE MONKEYS are in DANGER of being CRIPPLED and EXTERMINATED by National Institutes of Health (NIH) white coats.
Just a few days ago: Our investigators discovered that the NIH extended funding for one of the worst primate experiments I've ever seen.
The experiments take place in a taxpayer-funded lab at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, and the video footage we've uncovered is absolutely heartbreaking:
Taxpayer, unless we take immediate action to cancel payout #R01NS045962, this is what could happen to another family of primates:
Yes, this nightmare is very real — and it's a recurring one.
In fact, you've been paying the $5.7M million tax bill... since 2004! [PAYOUT #R01NS045962]
But 19 years of monkey torture isn't enough for the NIH's white coats. They want to cripple and slaughter EVEN MORE of these sweet, intelligent creatures over the next year... and waste another $646K of our hard-earned tax dollars to do it!
But Taxpayer, here's the good news: We can still cancel the funding before the torture resumes, but ONLY if we can fund our NEW rapid response effort before the deadline.
Mackie, to stop taxpayer-funded animal testing, you must first stop wasteful government spending. Our strategy? Stop the MONEY. Stop the MADNESS!
That's why WCW is the only organization to have successfully shut down government primate labs in nearly a decade — no other group has closed any at all.
Remember the VA's $7 million Angel Dust lab in Minneapolis? Or its $9 million monkey crippling lab in West Haven? You gave generously — and we ended both quickly.
And remember the FDA's cruel $5.5 million baby nicotine addiction experiments? You stepped up. We stopped the experiments cold — and retired the survivors to a sanctuary!
In fact, with your help, we've slashed the FDA's primate abuse by 44%!
Now Taxpayer, I'm calling on you again. Will you help us end the NIH's primate testing program and prevent the torture of 9 more primates?
19 years is long enough,
Justin Goodman Senior Vice President White Coat Waste Project |
P.S. What's happening at Emory University is criminal. But since NIH payout #R01NS045962 got extended, we must move especially quickly.
We started a new rapid response fund because the most effective way to stop a government experiment is to stop its funding as quickly as possible. Even $1 could help us defund this lab, end NIH primate experiments, and rescue the survivors.
