Law against tests on MONKEYS in Switzerland

Target:
Federal Council and Federal Parliment of Switzerland
Sponsored by: 
Stop testing on Monkeys in Switzerland

Switzerland still permits that Monkeys are killed and tortoured during Tests.
Switzerland is considered a developed country and still permits this cruelty to monkeys for test. Monkeys have like humans feelings of suffer, anger, love, stress, happiness, fright, sadness and joy. They have for 98 % the same Genetic code as Humans.
But even if monkeys seem to be so similar to humans, the consequences of using the test results made on monkeys is dangerous, nonscientific and with unknown consequences for the user. The same product gives different results on different types of living beings. The tests on monkeys have been stopped due to protest several times on the University of Zurich because considered extremely USELESS. Please help with your signature to stop tests on monkeys by law.

REMEMBER THIS :
"I do not see a delegation for the Four Footed. I see no seat for the Eagles.
We forget and we consider ourselves superior.
But we are after all a mere part of Creation. And we must consider to understand where we are.
And we stand somewhere between the mountain and the Ant.
Somewhere and only there as part and parcel of the Creation."
---Chief Oren Lyons, Oneida
---From an address to the Non-Governmental Organizations of the United Nations, Geneva, Switzerland, 1977

Affenversuche abschaffen!

In der Schweiz werden immer noch Affen in Tierversuchen brutal

gequält und getötet. Wir zählen uns zu den hoch entwickelten

Staaten, trotzdem lassen wir solche Gräueltaten immer noch zu.

Affen können wie wir Menschen Leid und Trauer, Schmerz und

Freude, Stress und Angst, Glück und Liebe empfinden. Sie haben

bis zu 98 % den gleichen genetischen Code wie wir Menschen.

Jedoch auch wenn Affen uns Menschen noch so ähnlich sind %u2013 eine Übertragung der Ergebnisse aus

Tierversuchen auf den Menschen ist ein gefährlicher, unwissenschaftlicher Trugschluss mit verhängnisvollen

Konsequenzen für den Verbraucher!

Dieselbe Substanz kann bei verschiedenen Tierarten völlig unterschiedliche Reaktionen hervorrufen. Diese

unsicheren Ergebnisse auf den Menschen zu übertragen, ist verantwortungslos.

Die Affenversuche an der Universität Zürich wurden schon mehrmals wegen besonderer Nutzlosigkeit unter

Protesten eingestellt.

Packen Sie die Chance und helfen Sie durch Ihre Unterschrift mit, Tierversuche an Affen abzuschaffen!

Wir, die Unterzeichnenden, fordern,

dass Affenversuche in der Schweiz gesetzlich verboten werden!

I am appalled that Switzerland, the land of my forefather's would continue to allow such treatment of poor innocent animals. Stop this immediately!

A primate is almost humans duplicate experiencing most of our emotions and senses. This is reason enough to show them kindness and humanity. Anyone experimenting on a primate is simply a torturer.

You people are truly the sickest I've ever seen. If you would hurt an animal you would hurt a child. You are no better than pedophiles.
