Malaysia to Export Monkeys for Research

" I can understand the emotional part of it. But we have to be practical about

it. We cannot be emotional "

 

Malaysia has defended its decision to allow the export of macaque monkeys for

meat and scientific research purposes, saying it will help curb their booming

population in cities where they attack people and raid homes for food.

 

'We are talking about keeping a figure (of macaques) that is sustainable .. that

will not cause problems to the people,' Natural Resources and Environment

Minister Azmi Khalid told reporters Friday.

 

The government quietly lifted a decades-old ban on the export of macaques two

months ago. Since then, Azmi said, he has received complaints that it is cruel

to export the monkeys, which are destined for restaurants and research

laboratories. Read

exportación de monos Macacos, para comer y propósitos de investigación,

argumentando que disminuirá el exceso de Macacos que hay en el país lo cual

origina ataques a humanos y robo de alimentos en las casas de los pobladores.

Forest Reserve, localizada en el corazón de Kuala Lumpur...

 

Argumentan las autoridades que deben conservarse solamente los monos que

signifiquen una población autosustentable y que no afecten a la población humana

según un comunicado de el ministro de recursos naturales " Azmi Khalid " .

 

Azmi informó que actualmente hay más de 258 000 Macacos de cola larga viviendo

en áreas urbanas de Malasya que significan problemas para la población ya que al

no tener suficiente comida atacan a la gente.

 

Además de la población Urbana de Monos en los bosques hay más de medio millón

de Macacos, motivo por el cual no se puede considerar a estos ejemplares como en

peligro.
