importing rhesus or african green monkeys omb 0920-0263

 

i oppose any importation of rhesus or african green monkeys to torturous testing in labs by researchers. using animals for these tests is a l500 a.d. method of testing and it is obolete and antiquaed. it should not be used anymore since there are modern methods available to test. the cdc is using old antiquated methods which does nobody any good. the monkeys are tortured in horrible ways for research that does absolutely no good for the citizens of america. this is a method whose time has passed. shut down importing monkeys so they can be tortured for useless financial gains for researchers who must be switched to more modern more accurate methods of research. use people who can talk back to youi and tell you what is happening. stop torturing animals which have no voice so you selfish, heartless researchers can torture them and bully them and cage them up with no real result for taxpayers.

i am sick of the millions of animals tortured in these research labs just because somebody wants to make money off their dead tortured bodies.
