We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit IDA's Action Center.

The short explanation of this alert was:

Intelligent and social rhesus macaque monkeys continue to endure intense and prolonged suffering as subjects of brain experiments conducted by University of

California-San Francisco (UCSF) researcher Stephen Lisberger. 

Chained on leashes inside their cages, "his" monkeys sit totally alone, metal coils in their eyes, bolts, metal plates, steel cylinders and electrodes drilled and cemented in their skulls. Eyeglasses that distort their vision are bolted to their heads for up to 12 weeks at a time. They are denied free access to fluids in order to keep them thirsty and motivate them to "perform" for juice rewards.


Please write to your Congressperson and Senators TODAY to urge an immediate end to federal funding for these cruel and unjustifiable experiments.
