Who is fighting for the long-tailed macaques?

Content Warning: This interview includes descriptions of animal harm and death. Please listen with care and sensitivity. In 2022, the long-tailed macaque was classed as an endangered species by IUCN.  This week on rabble radio, editor Nick Seebruch speaks with Dr. Lisa Jones-Engel about the plight of the long-tailed macaque—how this intelligent species landed on the endangered list, and why the continued use of primates in animal testing is not only outdated, but ethically indefensible. They also discuss what you can do to help end the importation of endangered monkeys from Cambodia.  About our guest  Primate scientist Lisa Jones-Engel, Ph.D., is a Fulbright scholar who has studied the human-primate interface for 35 years. Her scientific career has spanned the field, the research laboratory, and the undergraduate classroom. Dr. Jones-Engel serves as senior science adviser on primate experimentation with PETA's Laboratory Investigations Department.
