How Monkeys Go From Jungles to Labs

Posted on 21 March 2014 at 8:03AM by Ashley Fruno

Ever wonder how monkeys from places such as Asia and Africa end up caged in laboratories? PETA U.S.’ infograph lets you see the horrific journey that they endure, only to reach an even more terrifying final destination:

Almost every major airline in the world—including Delta Air Lines, Philippine Airlines, Air China, El Al Airlines, Vietnam Airlines, American Airlines, United Airlines, US Airways, China Eastern Airlines, TAM Airlines, Hainan Airlines, and dozens of others—refuses to take any part in this violent industry and prohibits the transportation of primates to laboratories. Some carriers, including UPS, FedEx, Cathay Pacific, and Korean Air, won’t transport any animals to laboratories.

Take action to help save monkeys! Urge Air France to STOP shipping monkeys to laboratories, and remember to book your next flight on an animal-friendly airline!
