Egyptair - yet more miserable flights

Egyptair is henceforth playing a major role in the global trade of non-human primates for research purposes. The airline transports thousands of individuals from Cambodia and Mauritius to their death in American laboratories. Thanks to an employee at JFK airport in New York, we have been warned about these wretched transportations. Not much later than last week, on 12 May, Egyptair transported 462 long-tailed macaques, exported for Bioculture and Noveprim, from Mauritius to JFK for the Charles River account.

Each imprisoned on their sides in a small travel carrier, the monkeys travelled in the hold. They endured an approximately 22-hour flight, with one stopover in Cairo and many additional hours on the road in a lorry to and from the airports. A gruelling journey before certain death in atrocious suffering at the laboratories. What a horrendous way to treat these sensitive and intelligent animals!

Add your voice to that of Action for Primates, One Voice, and Stop Camarles by sending an email urging Egyptair to join the many airline companies who have refused to be implicated in this cruel global trade of monkeys:

Captain Ahmed Adel, CEO: Ahmed.Adel@egyptair.com
Cgo.chairman@egyptair.com
Cgo.vchairman@egyptair.com
Marketing.Ifs@egyptair.com
You can also email their American office: newyork_to@egyptairnyc.com & info@egyptairnyc.com
For other Egyptair offices in the world: look on the airline’s website.

This is despicable and all too typical. THESE PRIMATES ARE BEING TORTURED AND MURDERED AND YOU DON'T CARE. Would you care if the same thing were to happen to you and your family?

Honteux,indigne de l'homme !
S'il vous plaît faites preuve d'empathie, de conscience et arrêtez tout ça, le commerce d'animaux vivants, la vivisection .
