IT'S A GREAT DAY TO HELP CHIMPS! Get Retired Chimps Out of the Lab and Into Sanctuary It’s the law! There are 26 chimps languishing at the Alamogordo Primate Facility (APF), waiting years for the freedom of sanctuary that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is refusing to give them. We cannot think of a better way to recognize World Chimpanzee Day than to help these special chimps! The CHIMP Act requires that the NIH move government-owned chimpanzees out of labs to the Chimp Haven sanctuary. But because the NIH has refused for years to obey the law, 18 chimps have already died while waiting at APF. This is appalling and unjust! If you haven't taken action yet, please contact the NIH and demand that it move the 26 remaining chimpanzees from APF to the freedom and dignity of sanctuary at Chimp Haven. After all they’ve been through, these chimpanzees deserve a chance to live the rest of their lives in the peace and freedom of sanctuary. Contact the NIH and demand that it move these chimpanzees to Chimp Haven before more lives are lost. |
