Stop Superbowl Chimps

CareerBuilder.com plans to air a new ad featuring real chimpanzees during the Super Bowl on February 5th. Join Jane Goodall and others in an effort to get the company to reconsider using chimps in their ads.

In her letter to the company, Jane Goodall points out several of the problems associated with the use of chimps in advertising and entertainment. For example, one issue is that these chimps are always infants, separated from their mothers. As they grow up and become strong and unmanageable, they often end up in roadside zoos, or get euthanized. Another issue is the negative impact these ads have on conservation efforts for wild chimpanzeees, which are endangered.

Read the entire letter she has written to the company, explaining all the problems inherent in the use of chimpanzees in entertainment, and then sign your name to it. http://janegoodall.ca/ask-careerbuilder-not-to-use-chimpanzees.htm
