Dear Sir,
Mauritius is one of the largest exporters of primates for vivisection laboratories
in the rest of the world.
To date four Mauritian companies have been granted
licenses to catch and export primates.
Gateway to Hell is a European based campaign focusing on the issue of the
transport on animals
who are destined for vivisection experiments, in particular
those which are wild caught. Inside investigations
have shown that many of
the animals suffer horrendously when captured, and many die en route to countries
in North America and Europe. Once in the laboratories they are then subjected
to sickening and pointless experiments
which any civilized person would clearly
abhor.
With this in mind we are calling on countries involved in this
export of animals
for vivisection or otherwise to end this trade.
In the case of Mauritius
we are calling for a complete revokation of all licenses granted to export
primates forthwith,
and for a guarantee not to license or otherwise permit
the trade to take place in the future.
Should we fail to receive such a guarantee it is our intention to launch an
international boycott against the Mauritian
tourist and sugar industries,
to let people know about the unfortunate primates sharing their flights with
Air France
out of the Republic of Mauritius.
However, it is our sincere wish that we can come to an amicable agreement
on this issue.
Yours sincerely
