I disagree with you. America is a waste land of fools without any moralls or ethics. Their is a difference between humans and apes and their was never a need to use animals in your research labs from hell. Americans beleive anything that sails under the flag of science blinded by marketing advertising and an inability to THINK. Totally in fear of death as cowards and would sell themselves for one more inhale fools that are to lazy for prevention of illness but great to beleive we are right around the corner from a so called cure. SEND US YOUR MONEY. Unable to remove the high wires that promote breast cancer or fight for clean air or water. only t willing to write a check to the billion dollar cancer racket. Lusting for the quick fix and are a bad joke to civilized people everywhere.

This is a grave injustice, indeed. It wounds me to know that we overlook, mistreat, and see fit to throw away the very creatures we should be treating with utmost respect. I don’t quite know where to begin to change this travesty, but begin I shall.

We should end animal testing once and for all. We abuse animal to live a better and healthier lives. How can one think that it is ok to do that to animals. Lets test on humans instead. We are the one that needs it, so test on the sick people.

Beautiful program. Anyone interested in finding out more about the inner lives and struggles of these amazing animals might want to check out the book Next of Kin by Roger Fouts which follows the life of one of the first chimps to be taught sign language and later the struggles of her caretakers to find homes for her and other chimps used for research.

I would also like to send a contribution to Linda Koebner for the sanctuary in Shreveport,Louisiana. I was very touched by this program and what she sets out to accomplish and what she has done in the past. I am grateful and thankful for what these chimpanzees have done for us. These chimpanzees are our unsung heroes. They deserve the BEST treatment and accommodations for their remaining years. Thank you for opening up my eyes. My heart goes out to these beautiful, selfless creatures.

Very heartbreaking story. That reunion was too much. I understand Linda has separated from Chimp Haven and there are legal issues around that. Hopefully, they can all work it out. She seems to have a great heart. So sad about Sparky. At least he had a few years in the wild after the labs got done with him. Wonder if the other two are still around.RIP Sparky and Thankyou.

Thank you for this heart-wrenching program and for telling us how to donate to help the chimps. I believe that we should not be using animals in scientific research anymore. Again, thank you SO much.
