signing a petition regarding experimentation on primates. Save #99, peta's new campaign, is trying to urge the government to end experimentation on primates.
"They’re identified by the last two digits of their I.D. numbers, tattooed across their chests. #99 was one of hundreds of monkeys who were taken from their homes in the wild and dosed with an experimental substance in a laboratory in Vienna, Virginia. He was the smallest and sickliest in the experiment—pale, emaciated, bald. Constantly hunched in the back of his cage, #99 was laughed at, called names, and refused treatment. Every day, he endured the same beatings, abuse, and experiments as all the others.
It’s too late for #99, but you can follow the lead of Alkaline Trio, Against Me!, and Silverstein and sign a petition to help other monkeys like him."
