Please take action for these sadly abused primates. The below link contains video.

with monkeys still in them, leaving the animals wet and frightened. Monkeys were also seen picking food out of the waste trays beneath their cages as well as frantically pacing back and forth inside small, barren steel cages—driven insane by life inside these prisons. Please join us in urging the U.S. Department of Agriculture to launch an immediate investigation into ONPRC for possible violations of animal protection laws.
