The HSUS Chimps Deserve Better Campaign
Information
Category:
Organizations - Advocacy Organizations
Description:
There are more than 1,000 chimpanzees remaining in US laboratories; most have been there for decades. The HSUS is seeking to end the use of these endangered animals for invasive research and testing in the United States (the only country, besides Gabon, that continues to use chimpanzees for harmful research). In addition, we want to ensure that the chimpanzees currently in laboratories are retired to appropriate sanctuaries.
