AR-News: Chimps in Super Bowl Commercials

[NEAVS]

Protest the Use of Chimpanzees in Super Bowl Commercials

Chimpanzees were used in Super Bowl commercials to promote Dodge cars
and Bud Light beer.  Please write, call or email these companies, letting them
know you will NOT buy their products until they completely discontinue the use
of chimpanzees - and all other animals-in their advertisements. 

Such performances are cruel and insulting to chimpanzees. Performing chimpanzees
are  "children" taken from their mothers. The training methods inflicted upon them
often include punishment, fear or deprivation. The acts they perform are unnatural
and can be painful or frightening.  When the chimps are no longer "cute" or
controllable, many have been recycled to laboratories.
