Hundreds of long-tailed #macaques - destined for testing labs - exported from #Mauritius endure a 28 hour transport ordeal to USA on #SkyTaxi. Stopping @JFKairport before final destination - #Miami @iflymia. This is a relentless and brutal trade in monkeys' lives.

The monkeys were imported by #CharlesRiverLaboratories (CRL), a contract research company.

The exploitation & persecution of long-tailed #macaques in #Mauritius continues. This week, hundreds were transported by #Skytaxi to suffer & die in testing laboratories in Europe & USA. A relentless & inhumane trade in monkeys’ lives.
Happening Now: A flight with hundreds of Endangered long-tailed #macaques from #Cambodia imprisoned on board is currently en route to #Montreal - destined for Charles River Labs. #SkyTaxi is scheduled to land @YMXAirport in a few hours. Shame on #Canada!
Come on #MarkCarney, when are you going to end this disgraceful collaboration with #CharlesRiverLabs?
