show moreIs this how the next pandemic begins? Tens of thousands of monkeys are imported into the US every year to be mutilated, poisoned, deprived of food and water infected with painful and deadly diseases and eventually killed in laboratories!

Dr. Lisa Jones-Engel is a senior science advisor on primate experimentation for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).
A Fulbright scholar who has studied the human-primate interface in Africa, Asia, and the primate biomedical facilities of the U.S. for nearly 40 years, she has published 95 peer-reviewed articles spanning the fields of primatology, virology, epidemiology, microbiology, and conservation.
Her most recent book, Neglected Diseases in Monkeys From the Monkey-Human Interface to One Health, was published in 2020.
Her work includes addressing the neglect and disease risk posed by the University of Washington’s Washington National Primate Research Center, where she worked before coming to PETA.
