On
05/30/2000, R93014 departed WNPRC and was shipped to Tulane Primate
Center in Covington, Louisiana. Tulane, a tax supported facility,
refuses to answer any questions concerning primates they hold. It
is not suprising since they are obviously ashamed of the activities
that occur in their lab.
No
other information is will be available about R93014.
We wish to thank Ann Emerson for her continued efforts on behalf
of her primate friends located at Wisconsin National Primate Research
Center. Without Ann's support, information about R93014 would not
be available. She is a true friend to primates.
