Shocking loss of life: 10 Endangered long-tailed #macaques found dead after authorities in #Vietnam intercept an attempt to smuggle #monkeys, captured from the wild. It was reported that the macaques were destined to be sold for human consumption: https://t.co/WybRkykIQt

At #CITES #AC33 meeting in Geneva, it was agreed to keep #longtailedmacaques from #Cambodia, #Philippines & #Vietnam in important review that places their breeding & trade under scrutiny. Long-tailed macaques are traded in their thousands for global research & testing industry.

The reality of what you see on #monkey abuse channels, the way the illegal owners portray on videos is #animal cruelty #animalabuse #PrimatesAreNotPets https://t.co/t2jus3mAI4

MyWay Airlines, based in #Tbilisi, Georgia, is currently on the ground at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Airport in #Mauritius. We suspect it will soon be transporting hundreds of #monkeys who are destined to suffer and die in testing laboratories.

Activists across the globe tell Meta: End the cruelty!!

Lady Freethinker protested at Facebook's headquarters to urge the platform to #StopMonkeyTorture. The protest was part of a global #DayofAction with @Action4Primates in London and WelttierschutzgesellschaftEv in Berlin.

On 18 April, Ethiopian Airlines transported 250 long-tailed #macaques – originating in #Mauritius – from #AddisAbaba to #USA. Please join appeal to @flyethiopian to end its involvement in this inhumane trade in monkeys' lives: https://t.co/rrWhWPa3Km

The reality for these infant monkeys is heartbreaking & tragic: taken from their mothers; subjected to inhumane treatment, causing substantial physical & psychological harm; controlled & manipulated to 'perform', while being filmed for human 'entertainment' on social media.

Monkeys at #AngkorWat in #Cambodia - the #UNESCO site - continue to be harassed & abused for social media videos. Disturbing report by @davidrising @AP. Urgent action against video operators needed & strict ban on interacting with & feeding #monkeys: https://t.co/wLsb8mBmLR?

[Action for Primates @Action4Primates]

We have joined an appeal by @AsiaforAnimals Macaque Coalition to Minister of Environment & Forestry, #Indonesia @KementerianLHK, to end the export of long-tailed #macaques. 1,402 macaques were exported to USA in 2023 - all captured from the wild. https://t.co/eb4IUjLVYF

USA monkey trafficking trial - due to begin on 11 March -will put global trade in long-tailed macaques under spotlight. #Cambodia wildlife official charged with being part of #monkey smuggling ring falsely labelling wild-caught macaques as captive-bred to bypass regulations.

Infant #macaque rescued & man arrested in sting operation by police in #Thailand for illegally trading protected wild animals; man was selling #monkeys through #Facebook page for cruel practice of coconut picking: https://t.co/Z8WjB59jnU

Urgent: The company behind this proposal is accused of ill-treatment & illegal possession of #macaques. Please sign & share petition to stop construction of massive #monkey farm in #Mauritius to supply testing labs in USA & Europe: https://t.co/6LffonpdeE https://t.co/B3xyE6zi9U

[Action for Primates @Action4Primates]

A proposal of any size, but especially one so large & one that involves the widespread capture of many 1000s of wild #monkeys is alarming. If granted, it will increase the suffering & misery already inflicted on long-tailed macaques in #Mauritius. https://t.co/oNbfLUkNIZ

What should you do if you see #animals being hurt for views on social media?

1. Don’t engage. Commenting boosts the visibility of the content and gives the people behind the cruelty what they want.
2. Report content using the platform’s reporting system.

Help STOP cruel forced photo ops that exploit #endangeredanimals by signing petitions on our website and by spreading the word that selfies with #wildanimals are cruel… not cute.

[Animal Rights News @theirturn]

Adidas not only pays commercial hunters to chase down and slaughter wild kangaroos and their joeys, but it is also engages in humane washing, claiming that the merciless killing meets "animal welfare" and "species protection" standards. @adidas - you are dishonest and cruel.

Thomas Rabe, the Chair of #adidas Supervisory Board, knows that the company is operating in bad faith and against its own corporate policies. When will he acknowledge that #kangaroosarenotshoes and join Nike, Puma and New Balance in making the switch to #crueltyfree materials?

@ThomasRabe @jhoelkemann @KSchlautmann @Bertelsmann_DE - Please do the right thing.
