So excited to be working alongside some fabulous people on PSGB Council!

[PrimateSocietyGB @PrimateSociety]

Still looking fresh at the end of a 2.5 h PSGB Council sesh earlier today. Lots of exciting new developments in the works! Our Winter Meeting will go ahead virtually this year, and there will be another virtual 'event' before then, probably mid-June. More news to come!

If you live in the UK and you want to help primates today, respond to the government/Defra's consultation (til Feb. 6) on whether primates should be kept as pets (hint: they should not)

Summary below.

[Netty Gunn @nettygunn]

Please #donate to Blue #Iguana #Conservation during this difficult period. #GrandCayman’s BIC breeding facility is the most important place for #endangered blue #iguanas & without it, they would absolutely be #extinct. Thanks #retweet #caribbean #reptile

Primates aren’t pets, and they’re not for entertainment. Join our fight to end primate trafficking: sign our petition demanding that Facebook & Google provide a way to report that videos and images featuring pet primates are cruel. #PrimatesNotPets https://t.co/gGXwWWpv5j
