She isn’t Monkeying around!
Actress Pamela Anderson has urged officials at India’s top medical institute to retire old monkeys used for scientific research after learning the ageing animals are kept in cages for up to 20 years.
The Baywatch beauty was appalled to see video footage allegedly showing sick monkeys and rabbits locked up and in distress at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS).
So she’s penned a letter to AIIMS director R. C. Deka urging the facility’s bosses to free the animals.
Anderson writes, “It broke my heart to see the suffering. The animals suffering behind closed doors at AIIMS must endure this nightmare every day.”
We hope her words make a difference.
