STOP UBC ANIMAL RESEARCH'S "UBC MONKEY DEATH ROW" DEMO
Yesterday, Stop UBC Animal Research staged a "UBC Monkey Death Row" demo at the Vancouver Art Gallery to protest UBC's brutal experiments on monkeys. The event, which included activists dressed up as monkeys in jail suits and in chains locked in a mock jail cell, as well as a crowd holding signs that read "UBC, no more monkey business" and "Dead Monkey Walking," was an outstanding success.

We received extensive media coverage. Below is a list of media that covered our event, as well as links to stories and photos.

Goodness, poor animals - the worst times in the history of humanity. Each animal is a divine being of God, and we brutalize, torture and slaughter them by the billions.
My heart bleeds and bleeds for them.
Thank you and to all the people who stand up for animal rights. God I pray that humanity regains humanity and ends this monstrosity.
