Thank FedEx and UPS for Not Shipping Research Animals

  • by: Animal Advocates

Thank both FedEx and UPS for deciding to discontinue shipping mammals and nonhuman primates destined for research laboratories. FedEx and UPS have joined other carriers, including airlines.

The more the various transport companies realize the harm they are involved in by sending these animals to, in many cases, certain death, and in most other cases lives made miserable by their incarceration in cages, the more these companies will opt out of the live animal transport business and opt into the business of being compassionate carriers.
