Barbara J. King is a professor, author, ethicist and primatologist who writes frequently for NPR's 13.7: Cosmos and Culture blog. I approached her about covering a topic that is the focus of much of my work in the spring and summer: ending monkey rodeos. The result was a comprehensive and clear article that explored the concerns regarding these archaic events.
I am grateful that articles like these pop up from time to time, reminding the public that consumers really do have the power to shut down industries that harm animals. When they cease being profitable, they will cease themselves. On behalf of the monkeys whose lives are tied up in all this... we shall continue our work.
