ROUND 2
Operation Knock Out
First round won - export banned of Nepalese monkeys for vivisection
We are delighted to be able to inform you that, as of the 25th of August, Nepal has declared a ban on the export of monkeys to vivisection laboratories, however the campaign is not yet over. Whilst the monkeys are now safe from export, there are still American funded research facilities in Nepal and the monkeys intended for export to the USA are still caged in the breeding facilities.

We have now launched Operation Knockout, round 2 of the campaign.
The Gateway to Hell campaign demands from the Nepalese government to
legislate the rights of these monkeys into strict laws:
1. Banning the export of monkeys for biomedical research by law.
2. Banning the breeding and capturing monkeys for biomedical research
by law.
3. Banning experiments on monkeys for biomedical research by law.
The Gateway to Hell campaign demands the immediate release of all the
250
captured monkeys still caged in the breeding farm in Lele. We want
the monkeys to be rehabilitated and released back into the wild.
Round 2 is going to be an exciting one as we are planning demonstrations around Europe at Tourist expo's to inform potential visitors of Nepal about the cruel monkeyfarms.

We will continue the campaign by protesting at Nepalese embassies and engaging in action alerts to help ensure the safe release of the monkeys and an end to primate experimentation in Nepal. Please contact the campaign for details of your local embassy or consulate, and to receive all the necessary campaign materials. Your continued support is vital for the lives of the monkeys. The sick need of American vivisectors for monkeys most be halted in Nepal. Together we will close down the farms and liberate the monkeys.
