Air Force Space Program Chimpanzees

When the US Air Force Space Program stopped using chimpanzees, the chimpanzees were given sanctuary at Primarily Primates. They now have lives free from exploitation and experimentation. www.primarilyprimates.org

For the same reasons experiments should not be done on animals, they also should not be done on humans. It can be easy to forget, but humans are animals.

@39RatRodCoupe yes prisoners should be used. I agree 100 percent on that. leave innocent animals alone

For the last 18 months I have been working on the genealogy of the Chimpanzees in the U.S. Between the experiments, zoos and animal traders my heart just broke, I couldn't believe that a human being could do such cruel things to the Chimpanzees. We must fight for their release and see that they are all placed in sanctuaries.

I would rather see tax dollars be spent on animal sanctuaries than on animal "experimentations" that normally yield results that are of no consequence.

Why must they use animals for study, why not use prisoners doing life never to be released. Don't kill them outright so why not experiment on them like vaccines or drugs that aren't quiet ready for human trial.
