Articles published in OR and FL

Part of my duties with the North American Primate Sanctuary Alliance (NAPSA) is to speak up on primate-related topics that are especially newsworthy or a particular focus of the group. In July, the organization kicked off an advocacy program about the private ownership of primates. I wrote a number of articles that were then pitched to local and national news outlets. So far, two have been printed.



On July 26th, the Bend Bulletin (in Oregon) printed "Chimpanzees Should Not Be Pets."






On August 2nd, the Gainesville Sun (in Florida) printed "Erika Fleury: Jungle Friends' Jersey Shows Negative Consequences of Primate Ownership."

I expect more articles will be published this month. I look forward to sharing the news of this!
