We are happy to announce that the most recent issue of the AV Magazine, “Primates in Crisis: The Global Challenge” is now available online, for free!

In this timely issue, you’ll learn more about the use of nonhuman primates in research and testing, their lives in and out of labs, and the serious ethical concerns for their welfare, as well as species survival.

Featuring:

• The tragedies surrounding the international trade and transport of monkeys for research, including monkeys taken from the wild
• The history of invasive primate experiments, which cause immense animal suffering, sanctioned and funded by the federal government using taxpayer dollars
• Sanctuaries give monkeys released from labs new life and liberty!

Last year and again this year, the Senate has allocated $30 million to the National Institutes of Health to expand its primate breeding program and increase primate research, so it’s important to know what goes on behind laboratory doors.
