Join the Fight Against Animal Experimentation at University of California Laboratories University of California Laboratories routinely perform cruel experiments on primates and on many other species. Rhesus monkeys are confined to restraint chairs with electrodes inserted into their brains and restraining bars literally bolted to their skulls. Experiments such as this often lead to diseases like encephalitis, meningitis, etc. These brutal projects also deprive the primates of water for extended periods -- up to 23 hours per day for 5 days per week. Primates imprisoned in laboratories often are driven insane by captivity engaging in self-mutilation and stereotypical behavior. Your help is need to bring an end to these heinous projects. These experiments and more are paid for with your tax dollars. We estimate that UC labs receive these funding amounts per year for animal experiments: University of California, San Francisco -- 0 million University of California, Los Angeles -- 8 million University of California, Davis -- 8 million Protest specifics: University of California Los Angeles -- Monday, July 11th at 1PM Meet at the corner of Westwood and La Conte at 1PM Directions to the event: from the 405 exit wilshire east turn north (left) on westwood blvd Le Conte is about 4 blocks north of wilshire find parking anywhere you can after turning on Westwood blvd (parking is scarce) Local Contact: Kristy Anderson kristymichele@gmail.com 310-729-1035
