Monkeys on cargo carrier to arrive in USA today

An AirBridgeCargo aeroplane containing a shipment of monkeys is currently on its way from Moscow to Chicago in the USA. Our source in Moscow has alerted Action for Primates and One Voice to the shipment that is due to arrive at Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD) today at 07:30 CST, (13:30 GMT and 14:30 CET) on flight ABW301/RU301.

The monkeys (long-tailed macaques) were flown from Cambodia to Moscow (ABW348/RU348) arriving late last night. Shipped as cargo in small transit crates, they will have endured two international flights with a lengthy delayed stop-over at Sheremetyevo Alexander S. Pushkin International Airport (SVO) in Moscow. The total journey, which is over 15,000 kilometres, will take over 25 hours to complete, including transit time, as these intelligent and sentient animals are flown across the world to be used in experiments in US laboratories.

Even if you have done so before, please take action by sending polite E-mail to AirBridgeCargo, urging it to stop transporting non-human primates and join the many other airlines that refuse to play a role in this cruel trade.
