Alamogordo, New Mexico – The remaining chimpanzees from the Alamogordo National Primate Research Center have found a new home in Louisiana. The move comes after the facility faced closure due to budget cuts and changes in research priorities.
The transition was organized by the Save the Chimps organization, which arranged for the relocation of 26 chimpanzees to their sanctuary in Keithville, Louisiana. The sanctuary provides a natural environment for the chimpanzees to live out their lives in a peaceful and safe habitat.
The decision to move the chimps to a sanctuary comes after years of research conducted on them at the Alamogordo facility. Many animal rights activists have criticized the use of chimpanzees in research and have advocated for their retirement to sanctuaries.
The move marks the end of an era for the Alamogordo National Primate Research Center and a new beginning for the chimpanzees as they settle into their new home in Louisiana. Save the Chimps is committed to providing the best possible care for the animals and ensuring that they can live out the rest of their lives in a comfortable and enriching environment.
