Chimpanzee Testing
Ever sense we sent the chimp to the moon we have been using chimpanzees as our so called guinea pigs. We have been testing to see how they respond to no gravity, being given hepatitis C and HIV. In New Mexico chimps that have already gone through years of testing are being called back to the labs to get injected with new diseases and other harmful drugs. A quote by Jane Goodall said, "Most of these chimpanzees are older and have already been subjected to years of invasive research. Would it not make more sense to leave these chimpanzees in permanent sanctuary at the Alamogordo facility." I think that she is right, animal testing is cruel and should not be allowed. Even if animal testing is required then you shouldn't test animals and then bring them back to the lab over a decade later.
