MONKEYS AT HEBREW UNIVERSITY
On
Friday, 14 December, 2001, the Israeli magazine Tel-Aviv
Times published Evidence
from the Torture Chamber, The Story of 'N'.
The article details the experiences of the under-cover
investigator who bravely documented the appalling
surgery on Malish and the grotesque misconduct which
preceded and followed so his story could be told.

On
Tuesday, 27 November 2001, over 300 people (including
Israeli government Minister Naveh and parliament members
Sarid and Cabel) attended a demonstration staged at
the Jerusalem Hebrew University where shocking experiments
on primates were exposed. Click

MALISH
IS NOT ALONE! JADE, FRED, SIMON & OTHERS...
Along
with Malish, Jade, Fred and Simon are still being
caged alone in the Hebrew University laboratories
in Jerusalem. Their skulls are open and they are deprived
of inherently basic needs (such as water and the company
of their own species.) They are awaiting their untimely
death. They have been dealt a fate of misery, pain
and death in the name of science. Four more monkeys
(whose names we do not yet know) are in line to undergo
the same cruel and unnecessary experiment.
SAVE THE MONKEYS!
The
monkeys cruelly confined at the Hebrew University,
who have been subjected to various painful experiments,
can be rehabilitated. A primate sanctuary for retired
"research" primates was established recently
in Moshav Shdema, next to Gedera [at the center of
Israel], by Freedom to Live.
The sanctuary could rehabilitate and care for these
monkeys, but it is unlikely that the university will
agree to relinquish them to the sanctuary. According
to an estimate given by the Israeli Society for Abolition
of Vivisection, around 150 non-human primates are
being held in Israeli laboratories. About a third
of them were raised in primate breeding farms such
as the Mazor (BFC) farm in Israel, while the rest
were captured in Africa, despite being protected wild
animals.
Write
to the Hebrew University and encourage them to
release Malish, Jade, Fred, Simon and all the
other monkeys to Freedom to Live's sanctuary and
to cease this cruel experiment immediately!
