FREE THE OXFORD TWO

 

 

 

Demonstration Saturday 15th May

 

 

 

Meet 12 Noon, Balliol College, Broad St, Oxford.

 

 

The SPEAK Campaign is calling for the immediate release by Oxford University of

two rhesus macaque monkeys. After fifteen years of confinement and

experimentation these individuals have known no life outside the walls of a

University lab.

 

The two rhesus macaque monkeys in question have had surgery to remove part of

their brains ten years previously when they were five years old. The monkeys

were last known to be involved in an experiment funded by the Medical Research

Council and conducted at Oxford University and according to research data was

exploring reaction to 'visual stimulus'. These two individuals have been given

artificially produced brain damage by scientists trying to mimic human brain

damage and then set a battery of tests to study their reaction times.

 

SPEAK campaigns will be holding a demonstration in Oxford on Saturday 15th May

to call for the release of two rhesus macaque monkeys who have spent their

entire lives inside the walls of vivisection labs. Oxford University is engaged

in building a new centre of animal abuse in which even more animals will suffer

and die on the alter of scientific fraud, academic arrogance and profit driven

blindness.

 

The new animal torture lab in the early stages of construction on South Parks Rd

in Oxford will have a covered bridgeway connecting it to the " notorious " dept of

Experimental Psychology. On the upper floors of this building is Level F, the

scene of some of the most horrific animal experiments ever carried out in this

country. This modern day torture is protected by locked doors and state of the

art security hidden from the eyes of the outside world. The two rhesus macaque

monkeys imprisoned here should be released at once and be allowed to live out

the rest of their lives in an enviroment that will allow them to experience the

stimulation denied to them as victims of a flawed scientific practice.

 

We urge you to come to Oxford on Saturday 15th May and demand the release of the

" OXFORD TWO " and SPEAK out against the building of a new animal abuse centre in

Oxford. The animal rights movement has defeated Cambridge University and the

Government over their plans to build Europe's largest primate lab, together we

can halt this expansion of animal terror and strike a blow for animal

liberation.

Dear Anthony and the list,

 

You mention leftism in conjunction with animal rights, naturally enough.

Have you seen my article, " Marxism and Animal Rights, " on my website?

 

http://sztybel.tripod.com/home.html

 

It is under academic research.

 

Thanks for all of your illuminating and motivating postings!

 

Sincerely,

 

David Sztybel
