Help stop abuse of these "lab" monkeys @ UCSF

YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW!

It’s hard to believe but around the country, taxpayers’ dollars are being used to fund cruel animal tests—even though they often violate the Animal Welfare Act! It’s truly horrifying.

PCRM is in the midst of a lawsuit against the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF)—the latest example of this unlawful cruelty to animals. But we need your help!

A letter you have just received from me (or are about to receive) has more details on this disturbing case. You’ll read about how a group of concerned citizens alerted us of the atrocities at UCSF:

  • Drilling holes into the skulls of monkeys
  • Bolting metal restraining devices into their heads
  • Making them “work” to receive “rewards” like water

PCRM relies on activists like them—and like you—to help us protect and save more animals from unnecessary death. We must work together to make a difference!

I urge you to help protect animals in your own community. You can find tools to help you on our Web site.

But to make an immediate difference and help our case against UCSF, please make a generous gift to PCRM today.

Your contribution will help PCRM show that concerned citizens will not allow schools or corporations to violate the Animal Welfare Act or use state or federal funding to torture defenseless animals.

Please do your part—make a donation today!

Thank you for all you do,

Dr.

Neal Barnard, M.D.
PCRM President
