Research Chimp Makes it to Sanctuary: Rosemary's Story

Поделиться

  • Опубликовано: 2 дек 2019
  • This beautiful chimp spent the first 25 years of her life in medical research. During those long years, Rosemary lost some of her fingers. She also gave birth many times but only one of her babies survived: her daughter Chloe.
    Chloe made it to sanctuary at Project Chimps one year ahead of her mother. The two were likely separated early in life, so it's unlikely they would remember their family tie but our caregivers say that they are remarkably similar!
    We hope that they will one day be able to meet in person and possibly reunite. Perhaps as family, maybe as friends.
    Please remember Rosemary, Chloe and the chimps on #GivingTuesday and throughout the year by donating at projectchimps.org/donate
    Editor's Note: Though it may seem as though Rosemary is in a small cage inside her villa, she's actually in the corner of a large, multi-story chimpanzee house with her group mates all around her. Soon, she will have the opportunity to go outdoors into the forest if she chooses to. And that's the beauty of life in sanctuary. She will finally have the choice.

      JUST AS REAL No it’s not a lab, it’s a sanctuary for goodness sake!! Why on earth do you think that ?? Have you seen everything that they are given compared to the situations they came from ?? They’re with other chimps, given medical care if needed, food & interactions with people who love them more than anything. You really should think& read more about Project Chimps before you say something like that & start jumping to conclusions.It’s because of places like these that these beautiful beings have a chance to feel safe & live again.

      They have to do soft introductions first to make sure the groups can coexist together, if they just mi them together at once it'll likely end very badly. Also, who knows if she was kept with her daughter at the lab or if they were seperated immediately, as they often are sadly. If that was the case she wouldn't have any memory of her daughter, it would be another stranger to her.

Explaining how they prepared for them for the meeting. How they reacted. And, as I'm sure we are all praying, how they eventually settle into a relationship within a group. In the meantime, thank you so very much for your excellent work.

Chimps are EXPENSIVE to house for research. They don't keep an animal as amazing as her for nothing. How about celebrating the work she's done for humanity ALONGSIDE her freedom in retirement? Everybody thinks animal testing is horrible until they realize what they'd have to do to people to learn the same thing. And the people saying we should test on prisoners--sure thing you Nazi's. I'm sure we've never wrongfully imprisoned people in order to do whatever we want to them.
