Speak Out For Chimps!

Started by The Humane Society of The United States

Last night, ABC News: Nightline broke the story of more than 300 chimpanzees languishing at one of the world's largest primate research facilities. Now that you've seen the footage, please take action to help these chimps. Here are the things you can do:

-Ask the Governor of Louisiana to retire these chimps to sanctuary.

-Push for the passing of the Great Ape Protection Act.

This is an ongoing pledge that should be fulfilled as often as possible.
