SUMMARY:Protest York University's Experiments on Primates
DESCRIPTION:🚨 PROTEST YORK UNIVERSITY’S PRIMATE EXPERIMENTS 🚨 \n📍 Meet at: Aroma Espresso Bar\n🕜 Friday\, May 15 | 1:30 PM – 3:30 PM \nAt 1:30 PM\, we will gather at Aroma Espresso Bar before walking together to the protest location at York University for a peaceful demonstration and friendly public outreach. If you arrive late\, check back here in the discussion tab for the exact location which will be updated at that time. Signs\, banners\, and leaflets will be provided. Avoid logos on clothing. Let’s be respectful to all and work together to help the animals. \nWe are coming together to raise awareness about the suffering of nine rhesus macaques currently being experimented on at York University… and to demand a future beyond animal testing. \nA recent undercover investigation by Last Chance for Animals (LCA) exposed disturbing conditions inside York’s primate research lab. \nAccording to footage\, records\, and expert reviews released through the investigation\, macaques were allegedly subjected to:\n• Brain/head implants\, some reportedly encrusted with blood\n• Water deprivation used as a “motivational tool”\n• Social isolation for years at a time\n• Small barren cages causing severe psychological distress\n• Repetitive trauma behaviors like pacing\, swaying\, hair-pulling\, and self-harm\n• Permanent restraint collars around their necks\n• Multiple invasive surgeries over many years\n• Monkeys reportedly drinking their own urine due to dehydration \nOne macaque\, Kenny\, was documented repeatedly scratching at his implant until he reportedly pulled it out\, leaving a gaping wound. Another macaque\, Liesl\, reportedly suffered significant vision loss after multiple eye procedures. Experts reviewing the evidence described the conditions as causing severe physical and psychological suffering. \nThis protest is not only about York University. It is about the future of science and ethics in Canada. \nAround the world\, there is increasing momentum toward phasing out animal testing in favour of modern\, non-animal research methods. The United States and parts of Europe are already moving in this direction. Instead of defending outdated and cruel experiments on highly intelligent primates\, Canada should be investing in humane and innovative science. \nJoin us to stand up for compassion\, science without suffering\, and a better future for both animals and humans. \n📢 Please help spread the word by inviting friends and sharing this event.\n⬇️ LEARN MORE / WATCH THE INVESTIGATION / TAKE ACTION:\nhttps://stopyorkprimateresearch.com/
