Take Action Tuesday: Split-listing may be removed!

June 11, 2013 by Debbie

EOA take action tuesday

This morning the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS)  announced that they are proposing to remove the split listing between captive and free-living chimpanzees, making ALL chimpanzees endangered. This potentially will have a major influence on how chimpanzees are treated in this country. It will certainly have an impact on invasive research and most likely entertainment as well.

Read our press release on the proposal and see this news article featuring a photo of CSNW’s resident, Jody (read her story here).

At this moment, the FWS  has only made a proposal and this does not guarantee that it will be passed.  The FWS is currently accepting public comment, so we need your help! Please leave a comment here to express your thoughts on this issue. Let them know that chimpanzees should be regarded as an endangered species and that the hundreds of chimps still in labs and entertainment truly deserve to be in sanctuaries. Spread the word!

    I can’t tell you how grateful I am to hear that finally these special species are closer to getting relief from the nightmare they have been living. They ALL need to be removed from the labs, and taken out of the entertainment industry. The cruelty they have suffered is just beyond belief.

    Et tu Target? I saw an add on tv from target with a (forgive the spelling and possibly the minor detail) capuchin monkey bearing all of its teeth looking fearful with the back ground of a chimp vocalizing. I’m hoping the monkey was not real but couldent tell for sure. Have yOu seen it?

    Also thru my amazon acct I have a prime membership which part of it is where I can watch videos free. Today I came across the most disturbing thing to date. A SEVENTEEN episode series of “Lancelot Link: Secret chimp”. I’m at a loss for words. Have u seen it?
