Thank you @RipaManuela for raising concerns with @EU_Commission about the terrible plight of the long-tailed macaques in Mauritius; their capture, breeding and export for research purposes.https://twitter.com/RipaManuela/status/1405103981664350208 …
Mauritius intends to expand its program to capture wild macaques 
for breeding – and to ship the captive bred monkeys to 
for testing.
This may lead to large-scale commercial trapping of wild animals. A major setback in animal welfare!
