Globally public money is being spent torturing animals behind the scenes. Every country has its animal Belsens... In Great Britain, the nation of animal lovers, tens of thousands of gentle, trusting rhesus monkeys are systematically tortured in testing weapons of war.

More than 200,000 primates a year are transported in the evil slave trade. A dwindling population crisis threatens the survival of the great apes and is merely one result of wildlife exploitation now on the scale of grand folly.

The number of primates used in experimentation is increasing so rapidly that at least nine Asian and eight African primate species are considered to be threatened with extinction.

"Why, exactly all over the civilized world, in virtually every major city, are apes in prison?"
- Carl Sagan, The Dragons of Eden

The desperate need for social contact between primates in attempting to combat the loneliness of their cages.

Our crimes against the primates include:

• Inhumane trapping and transportation
• Imprisonment for life (up to 40 years if they survive) on concrete floors in tiny bare sheet metal cages with iron bars
• Isolation of infants from mothers at birth - for as long as 8 years in behavioural experiments
• Subjection to high doses of radiation - toxic chemicals, dangerous drugs - vile surgical procedures - especially the adult females - insemination with human sperm

They are crippled, blinded, made mentally defective, dependent upon drugs and alcohol - shackled in metal manacles and shot into space : They are infected with vd: They are smashed fully conscious into concrete walls at 70 kph

"We must think of transplanting the head, transplanting the brain, which until yesterday was the last frontier of experimental surgery. The tests we have tried with animals such as baboons show us that we are on the right road and will continue on it."
- Professor R. White
