Help Retire Over 200 Chimpanzees from Testing In Alamogorado, NM To a Sanctuary


Help Retire Over 200 Chimpanzees from Testing In Alamogorado, NM To a Sanctuary
The Issue
Over 200 government owned Chimps languish in the Alamogordo Primate Facility on New Mexico Hollman Air Force Base under a $42.8 million 10 year contract between Charles River and the National Institute of Health. Many of the chimps have been there since the 1950's. The Chimps are not being used for medical testing.
A wonderful sanctuary in Alamogordo wants to see the chimpanzees be set free! The sanctuary, Save The Chimps, rescued 266 Chimps, and 61 monkeys from their lives as test subjects in 2002. Urge NM to release the Chimps from unnecessary testing and to send them to a sanctuary to live out their lives in a safe, secure, and loving environment.
