https://youtube/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Bx1fy9e9ML8 Air France claims to be making the sky the best place on Earth. But in reality, the airline is making the sky a dangerous and scary place, as it is one of the largest traffickers of primates in the world. Air France continues to ship monkeys to laboratories, despite the fact that every other major airline in the world has ceased sending primates on these horrific one-way flights! Many of the monkeys Air France flies to laboratories have been snatched from the wild, ripped away from their homes and families. Crammed into tiny wooden crates in the cargo holds of passenger flights, they endure a dark and terrifying journey. Upon arriving in the U.S., the animals are transported to facilities such as Shin Nippon Biomedical Laboratories and Covance—the largest importers of primates in the United States—to be imprisoned and tormented in experiments. Almost every other airline in the world—including United, Aer Lingus, Air China, American, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, Delta, Lufthansa, China Southern, and Qantas—have shown great compassion by refusing to transport monkeys to laboratories. Air France even canceled an individual shipment of primates after a public outcry by PETA and its supporters. Now we must convince the airline to end this barbarism once and for all. Tell Air France officials that you wont be flying with the airline until it stops this cruel practice! Read more: peta.org/action/action-alerts/stop-air-france-shipping-monkeys-deaths/#ixzz3M4tgTF8p
