The DOJ has subpoenaed the animal testing giant, one of the largest importers of monkeys for experiments, and the company has agreed, at least for now, not to sell any of the monkeys involved, according to a just-posted filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and a company shareholder briefing this morning.

Please see the following statement from PETA primate scientist Dr. Lisa Jones-Engel regarding reports that animal testing behemoth Charles River Please see the following statement from PETA primate scientist Dr. Lisa Jones-Engel regarding reports that animal testing behemoth Charles River Laboratories would be transporting 1,000 laundered monkeys back to Cambodia:The monkeys did not leave Charles River Laboratories. PETA stationed individuals all day long outside the company’s Houston facility, and none of the 1,000 monkeys who were in danger of being shipped back to Cambodia left. Thousands of PETA supporters e-mailed and called the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, urging the agency to release the animals to a sanctuary instead of allowing them to be sent back to Cambodia to be funneled back into the forest-to-laboratory pipeline. PETA pledges $1 million for the placement of all the monkeys at Born Free USA primate sanctuary in Texas.
Please see the following statement from PETA primate scientist Dr. Lisa Jones-Engel regarding the 1,000 monkeys illegally brought into the U.S. who Please see the following statement from PETA primate scientist Dr. Lisa Jones-Engel regarding the 1,000 monkeys illegally brought into the U.S. who continue to be held at Charles River Laboratories facilities: Charles River Laboratories must pay for the transfer to an accredited sanctuary and lifetime care of the 1,000 endangered monkeys it imported illegally and currently holds caged in its Texas and Maryland laboratories. Our efforts have kept these monkeys in the U.S., but their future is uncertain. We have no assurance that this profit-driven company, now facing both civil and criminal investigations, won’t quietly load the frightened monkeys onto a flight to Cambodia so as to bleed every last dollar out of them. The U.S. government also bears responsibility, as it has contracted with Charles River for years, awarding the massive animal supplier more than $100 million to operate several of its animal laboratories, including the National Institutes of Health’s huge primate prison in Poolesville, Maryland. PETA and Born Free USA continue to work for the release of the monkeys, and we urge the government to take immediate action to demand their safe release to an accredited sanctuary.

Please see the following statement from PETA Senior Vice President Kathy Guillermo regarding the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) citation of JKL Nevada-based JKL Secure Freight Lines has endangered animals and the public—and now the feds have stepped in. Following our formal complaint to the USDA on February 16, which led the feds to cite Worldwide Primates, JKL was cited for violating the federal Animal Welfare Act for its role in transporting 167 long-tailed macaques across the country from Worldwide Primates in Miami to the Charles River Laboratories facility in Reno, Nevada, without proper veterinary examinations, which is a violation of the law. JKL is a repeat offender. After a PETA complaint in April 2022, the USDA cited the company for violating this very same federal requirement 14 separate times.Charles River Laboratories is under federal investigation for its monkey importation practices. The monkey importation and transport business is rife with violations and cruelty and needs to be shut down now.
