1. Stop the culling of Macaques in Gibraltar 
The Minister for the Environment in Gibraltar has announced a plan to cull a troop of Macaques around the Catalan Bay area. Although these monkeys may have caused disturbances for local residents, we believe that the culling of these intelligent, sociable and sentient primates is cruel and unnecessary when there are other alternatives to solve this problem, such as relocation.
We assert that, had a suitable management plan been implemented back in 1997, as proposed by Prof. Robert Martin, D. Phil, D. Sc, at that time, the current situation would not have occurred. Our research has shown that the Government of Gibraltar has consistently failed to invest adequate resources in the responsible management of their Macaque population, despite the presence of the monkeys boosting the local economy as a popular tourist attraction.
We request that the Government commits to investing in a comprehensive, long-term plan to manage the Macaque population, on which its tourist industry so heavily relies, without the use of culling.

‘‘I don’t know if Armani celebrates Christmas, but if he does, he has a good reason to be extra happy,” said Circuit Court Judge Terrence J. McGann.
Several people in the courtroom burst into applause and tears at the judge’s announcement while the monkey’s owner, Elyse Gazewitz of Rockville, bowed her head down on the table and sobbed.
‘‘This is the happiest day of my life,” Gazewitz said later. ‘‘Armani is coming home.”
Thank you to everyone who signed the petition.

5. Give "Breakfast Monkey" the credit it deserves!!
Positively the most important cartoon of your day, "The Breakfast Monkey" is an edible extravaganza through the wacky world of our squeaky-voiced hero - a monkey with the power of "breakfast magic."
His uncanny ability to produce wily waffles and bewitched bacon works wonders in warding off the evil cast of crazy characters of Mod City..
Join the Breakfast Monkey and his trusty sidekicks, Crazy Boy and Tinkle Fish, as they try -with good intentions but sometime disastrous results- to spread good food and good cheer to everyone they meet. Whether they like it or not.

Animal Nepal is concerned about the activities of the Washington National Primate Center (WNPC) and the Nepal Natural History Society.
Following the Indian ban on the export of rhesus monkeys for use in bio-medical research, Western research labs now seem to be eyeing Nepali monkeys. WNPC and its Nepali counterpart, NHS, have established a breeding centre for Nepalese rhesus monkeys at Lele, Kathmandu Valley. The monkeys in future are to be exported to the US and undergo painful and sometimes deadly tests.
Nepal's Hindus honour monkeys as a reincarnation of Lord Hanuman; Buddhists believe no animal can be killed or subjected to cruelties. Monkeys are a very important part of the country's natural and cultural heritage.
As citizens we are proud of our primates and do not want them to suffer unnecessarily. We certainly do not want our monkeys to end up in an American lab, subjected to horrifying experiments.
