Maternal Deprivation Experiments
An Animal Rights Article from All-Creatures.org
Information/Inspiration/Resources for YOU to help END Maternal
Deprivation Experiments
MISSION: As a coalition of scientists, doctors, psychologists, social
scientists, University of Wisconsin alumni, and animal advocates, our
purpose is to end maternal-deprivation experiments at the UW National
Primate Research Center, based in the UW-Madison Graduate School. Our
specific goal is to secure a ban on such experimentation by the University
of Wisconsin Board of Regents.
PROPOSED UW-MADISON EXPERIMENT: Baby monkeys in laboratories are taken
from their sedated mothers and then the babies are subjected to "various
stimuli" to induce fright, terror and anxiety. At one-two years of age they
are killed and their brains dissected in a misconcerted effort to find
psychotropic drugs to "help" traumatized human children.
