Primates in Laboratory Research: Is it Worth it?

What is a primate?

What is Laboratory Research? Research is defined as any type of experimental work that involves altering the diet, living situation, psychological state, or body structure of primates in a considerable way.

What are some statistics on primate research?

Pro-Primate Research Reasoning

"We need to recognize at the outset that what we do to animals from their perspective certainly, and probably from ours, is morally wrong and unacceptable," Jane Goodall
