Macaques are not expensive. At all. They sell for $10 American and that’s in the more touristy markets. They are tree rats. Labs don’t even obtain most of their monkeys legally. A quarter of them show up dead in boxes. They are treated like hamsters by gooks, as well they should be. They are awful creatures. Of course that doesn’t mean that they don’t claim they obtain them legally and they are expensive. That’s what they claim. Completely and utterly false. And they certainly aren’t going to wait six months to import the little fuckers legally. And most of these labs justify their experiments by claiming that their research has human applications. Do you think they are trying to hide that and we’ve discovered some secret? They literally justify their funding by claiming there are human applications. Otherwise what else are they are doing this for - researching cures for arthritis in parakeets? Coding? What other group would benefit from this research? Martians?
