The University of Utrecht, Holland, has recently announced an end to their primate research program and are now deciding what to do with the remaining five long-tailed macaque monkeys. They have stated that they're currently considering one of three options:--
1) Killing them and putting their brains into a database. 2) Giving the monkeys to Nijmegen University for the similar types of experiments. 3) Handing them over to one of the sanctuaries that have already agreed to take them.
This petition is to call on the University to release the monkeys to a sanctuary where they can live out their natural lives free from further unecessary suffering!
We the undersigned request that,
You consider the reputation of your university by ensuring that the animals involved in these experiments now be 'retired' to a place where they are able to enjoy whatever remainder of their natural lives.
We urge you in the strongest possible terms NOT to kill them or send them to another laboratory where they will undergo further experiments. We feel that those animals have suffered enough and that there is absolutely no justification to cause them to suffer any more.
We hope that you will consider our concerns.
