Washington – Whilst College of Massachusetts–Amherst (UMass) marmoset experimenter Agnès Lacreuse speaks on the American Mental Affiliation (APA) convention on Saturday, PETA “monkeys” protecting massive footage of sufferers from her laboratory will clamor out of doors the conference and make contact with for an finish to the varsity’s merciless and fatal menopause experiments.
When: Saturday, August 5, 2 p.m.
The place: Outdoor the Walter E. Washington Conference Middle, 801 Mt. Vernon Pl. N.W. (on the intersection with 7th Boulevard N.W.), Washington, D.C.
Lacreuse cuts into and screws electrodes onto monkeys’ skulls, cuts into their necks, deprives them of water, restrains them for hours at a time, and torments them in more than a few alternative ways, purportedly to check menopause, which marmosets don’t even revel in. To simulate menopause, Lacreuse cuts out their ovaries and makes use of hand heaters on their our bodies to imitate scorching flashes. She has squandered $5 million in taxpayer budget in this farce.
“Convention attendees must know that Lacreuse’s experiments carry disgrace to their group,” says PETA Vice President Dr. Alka Chandna. “PETA urges participants of the APA to be leaders in science and condemn the torment of monkeys at UMass.”
PETA—whose motto reads, partly, that “animals aren’t ours to experiment on”—opposes speciesism, a human-supremacist worldview.
