Dr. Larry Jecha, acting Health Officer of the Spokane Regional Health District, made the decision to put Chico to sleep over the weekend. As cause he cited the minimal but potential risk of disease transmission, the unwillingness of bitten victims to pay for the expensive shots, the inability to contact the pet's owners, and the fact that an animal must be killed to sufficiently test for rabies as that testing is performed on the brain. However, Dr. Buyukmichi says the chances of Chico having a neurological disease "were virtually zero anyway" and that probability was completely negated by the fact that the animal has been kept in captivity for a period long enough to determine with what he says is complete accuracy that the animal is not rabid.Dr. Buyukmichi added there hasn't been a case of a pet monkey contracting rabies in the United States since 1911 and in that instance the monkey was bitten by a rabid dog.
"I don't understand why they're doing this," he concluded. |

Buyukmichi offered to pay the roughly $900 per person that it would take to get the three people bit by the monkey the shots necessary to definitively determine that they did not contract any disease. He also offered to provide a permanent home for Chico and supply transport for the primate. However he said that when he made this offer to health officials in Spokane it was roundly rejected as "not an option." Numerous animal rights activists gathered outside the Spokane Public Health Building Monday morning to protest the decision to euthanize Chico, holding signs that equate the decision with murder. |

Earlier in the day a doctor in Texas offered to pay for expensive rabies shots for the three victims bitten by Chico last week. Dr. Ned Buyukmichi, the a resident doctor at Born Free USA Primate Sanctuary in southwest Texas, hoped that this would prevent the monkey from being put to death but the offer was declined. Dr. Buyukmichi said that there was no medical basis for the decision to euthanize Chico and doesn't understand the rationale of putting a monkey to death when that animal shows no signs of neurological disease. "It sounds like this is a political decision not a medical decision," Dr. Buyukmichi said. |

The Spokane Regional Health District has euthanized Chico, a pet monkey that escaped from its owner's South Hill home and bit three people last week. Chico was euthanized by a local veterinarian with health disrict officials in attendance early mondy afternoon. The decision to euthanize Chico came after the heath district rejected an offer to have the three people bitten by the monkey treated for possible exposure to rabies. Instead, the monkey's remains will be shipped to a lab in Shoreline in Western Washington to be tested for rabies post mortem. |
