This year, Action for Primates has published poignant images revealing the cruel capture of wild macaques in Indonesia for the global animal testing trade. Wild monkeys who, a few hours earlier, were living freely with their familial group in the Indonesian forests. They were brutally captured, the babies taken away from their mothers, and the ‘”undesirable” alpha males beaten and killed.
Maleth Aero, whose parent company is AELF FlightService, is the latest airline company to date to be implicated in the brutal global transport of monkeys. It is a terrifying and traumatising ordeal for sensitive and intelligent animals, and it is harrowing to know the horrendous fate that awaits them on arrival.
Action for Primates (UK), One Voice (France), and Stop Camarles (Spain) in Europe and PETA in the United States are calling on Maleth Aero to stop transporting these endangered macaques for laboratories, and to join the numerous other airline companies who refuse to play a role in this cruel and immoral trade. To date, we have not had a response to our previous messages; we are therefore chasing it up. Add your voice to ours to put an end to this cruel trade in monkeys’ lives by sending an email:
Stephen Haire, Head of the Sales Department at Maleth Aero, email Stephen.Haire@maleth-aero.com
