Not All Sanctuaries Are Sanctuaries
For example, Primarily Primates, Inc., which housed several retired research chimps, is apparently a pit of despair.
Also, facilities that receive federal funding such as Chimp Haven must return animals to laboratories if they are requested to. In my book, that's not really retirement.
Project R&R has a list of sanctuaries that can take animals, and notes which have received funding, and I assume approval, from them.
Personally, after watching Chimpanzees: An Unnatural History on PBS and getting to "know" Gloria Grow, I think the Fauna Sanctuary is truly a place that's earned it's name.

Primarily Primates is a great sanctuary that has been unfairly attacked. I urge you to read the updates on Friends of Animals' blog including the most recent (Dec 2) open letter from Primarily Primates sharing their side of the story.
To understand more about why Primarily Primates has come under attack, please read this commentary:
The Struggle to Save a Sanctuary and a Movement Ithaca Journal, 21 Nov 2006
Thanks for the information. As I have never visited PP, I can only go by second-hand accounts. I suspect that one can find fault with any sanctuary, and as always, human personality conflicts come into play.
Caring for animals properly is a major untertaking, and ultimately, no matter how good a sanctuary is it's no replacement for living in the wild. The bottom line is that we've robbed lab primates of the chance to be free, and the very least we can do for them is provide the best possible captive environment.
Wally Swett, that has run PP since it's inception, was a dedicated man that had a heart as big as the ocean. He said NO to no one.
He over committed his property, his resources, and his staff until there was nothing left.
The story that Peta wants you to believe about Wally and PP is just not true.
Investigate, and read.
Judge for yourselves.
I'm really very like your site.I hope youe site will be better an better.

I saw the sanctuary (Primarily Primates) in '03-'04 and I was a part of the receivership (10-'06 to 5-'07). The animal’s lives pre-receivership was that of a faded existence. Barren dirty infested cages, poor diet, and lack of medical care was thought to be acceptable by management. The animal to care staff ratio was/ and now again (as of May 1, 2007) is unacceptable. During the receivership I saw the animals begin to heal physically and mentally. Their cages were disinfected on a regular basis. They got produce every day. We gave enrichment, hay, and blankets because they are owed these things. The animals used to have to go through winters with no blankets or hay and despite what people might think they will not just go into their "night box" because it is freezing cold. They also never were given enrichment. What kind of life is that? This is supposed to be a retirement for them. The situation at PPI seems to be that of an animal hoarder in my opinion. Animals were/are allowed to breed continuously. Why would a "sanctuary" allow more animals to be born into captivity when so many already need retirement from labs, zoos, and the pet trade? Several vasectomies were performed during the receivership to help relieve the overcrowding. As for the reformed board... well there wasn't much reforming. Many of the current board members knew the conditions of the animals and in some way or another were involved with Wallace Swett for many years. It doesn't matter who does it but these animals deserve a better life. Their enclosures need to be updated and their lives enriched. I see the new management in charge (Friends of Animals and Primarily Primates) spending great amounts of money attempting to retrieve animals that were placed in great homes during the receivership instead of concentrating on the monumental task of improving the facility and lives that are already in need of their immediate attention. Old PPI board/”new” PPI board… it is all the same.. they do not have the animals best interest at heart. I ultimately hope these animals get the dignity and respect they so deserve. They will definitely be in my thoughts. I hope people do not forget or give up on these animals. Please visit www.primarilyprimatesxposed.com There is also a petition we are encouraging the public to read (and sign if in support of) for sanctuaries to become regulated/inspected. Thank you for your time.
