Help end experiments on primates

Looking into the face of a primate, it's hard not to feel a sense of familiarity. Many Australians would assume that these intelligent animals, who share so many similarities with us are protected from cruelty. But sadly, hundreds of primates are still used in research and experimentation in Australia. Not only are there three tax-payer funded primate breeding centres in Australia, our government also permits the import of primates for research -- which undercover investigations have revealed may underpin the brutal and illegal practice of capturing infant primates from the wild.
