Petitioner: Sam Mendoza started on March 11, 2009
The recent incident when a pet chimpanzee severely mauled a woman in Illinois is yet another painful reminder of why primates should not be pets. Primates are dangerous, wild animals who need room to roam free in the wild - not be cooped up as pets in suburban households.
The Animal Safety Act would make it illegal to engage in interstate and foreign commerce with primates as pets - making it much more difficult for people to buy a chimp as a pet. The House recently passed the Animal Act - and now it's up to the Senate to follow suit!
Urge your senator to support the Animal Act today so we can keep chimps where they belong - in the wild!
