in San Antonio Texas and in Nevada have brought renewed attention to the
unseen torture.
When Indira Gandhi was prime minister of India she found out that the US Navy had violated the US treaty with India that no primates would be used in military research. She banned primate export to the US. Now China and Malaysia are 2 of the largest breeders of captive primates for research. One Indian company is invested in Malaysia because of an Indian government ban.

Republican opponent have done anything for these animals. 26 or more corporations are licensed to import primates to the US for lab torture. Another one of these is Covance. It is difficult to get the list of the licensed facilities.
Yerkes in Atlanta with CDC faculty, Regional Primate Centers at the University of Wisconsin, the University of Oregon etc. Covance, Yale, Princeton, Cornell, Columbia, Ohio State, University of Texas, Kent State are additional facilities torturing primates.
