MONKEY WORLD www.monkeyworld.org
Monkey World was set up in 1987 to provide a perminent home for abused Spanish beach chimpanzees.
They work with foreign governments from all over the world to stop illegal smuggling and use of primates. The chimps at the centre have been rescued from across the world where they were being used as photographer's props, exotic pets, in laboratories, and in circuses. The animal's exact histories may vary but the majority of them share part of the same story. In the wild, their mother is shot, the baby is then stuffed into a basket, and put onto aboat to be smuggled into different countries to be sold illegally.
| Help Keep Eastern Wolves Safe Dear DEN Activist:  I am writing because we need your help on an important wolf issue. Recently, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) proposed removing federal protections for the gray wolf in the Great Lakes and Northeast regions of the United States. Wolves once roamed throughout this entire region of the United States until they were effectively removed after years of human persecution from bounty programs and government-financed trappers. With the assistance of federal protections, wolf populations have slowly recovered in small areas of their historic range. Currently, approximately 3,000 wolves roam throughout Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin however, no viable wolf populations exist in the Northeast. This proposal threatens to preclude wolf recovery efforts in the Northeast by limiting recovery success solely to the Great Lakes region. This proposed rule overlooks the Service's responsibilities under the Endangered Species Act to restore gray wolf populations to the Northeast despite the recent studies showing that suitable habitat and an adequate prey base in the northeastern forest could provide a home for up to 2,000 wolves. WHAT YOU CAN DO: Please go to the DEN Action Center at http://www.denaction.org and send an e-mail to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service urging them to reject the proposal to delist gray wolves in the East from Endangered Species Act protections. Comments are due NOVEMBER 18, so please send your message right away. Thanks for your help. Sincerely, Nina Fascione Vice President, Species Conservation Defenders of Wildlife BACKGROUND: For more information about Defenders wolf recovery efforts, please visit http://www.defenders.org/wildlife/new/wolves.html.
