TEXT
Many airlines all over the world refuse to transport animals destined for vivisection. Following a prolonged public campaign, the Israeli airline El-Al declared in September 2010 that its management decided to join the growing list of airlines that refuse to transport animals destined for vivisection.
Now, more than a year after El-Al stopped such transportation, vivisectionists are trying to force it to change this policy, through a lawsuit filed by The Council of University Presidents against El-Al.
The transportation of animals to labs is an integral part of the severe abuse animals endure in vivisection – they are transported in extreme packed conditions in a journey which may last tens of hours, while suffering extreme physical and mental stress, and many are found dead upon arrival.
In recent years, a significant part of the air transportation of animals for vivisection to and from Israel has comprised of monkeys imported to the Mazor Facility from Mauritius. The Mazor Facility is a private business that has been responsible for kidnapping monkeys from the wild in Mauritius, confining and breeding them in Israel, and selling their babies abroad, for vivisection.
We the undersigned applaud the El-Al management for its moral policy, which ensures us that while we fly on vacation or on business, there will not be animals kept with our luggage on their way to hell.

EL AL. Good ethics. Never support cruelty and pain which the monkeys endure. Thanks and let the primates thrive in their own home in the wild.

Just when we think we have made some progress, some people that only care about their agendas step up and we take a step backwards.

This kind of cruelty has been going on for far to long. There is no reason to perform experiments on animals with the computer tec we have today. Its barbaric and no way is there a human way of ever doing these experiments on any animal.

ET Al, good for you! I am thankful for the compassion you are showing to captive primates that would be flown into a living hell with no outlet except death. Thank you from all who cannot speak for themselves.
