Researchers Call for Collaboration On Wild Primates, Human Diseases
By Stephen P. Hoffert Chimpanzees share almost all their gene sequences with humans, and this closeness has made them ideal animal models for many human diseases. But similarities between humans and nonhuman primates go beyond genetics. Nonhuman primates are very social animals, travel long distances to find food, sometimes live on the fringes of the wild, and often become afflicted with diseases closely resembling those of humans. PREP FOR FLIGHT: Handlers prepare chimpanzee Ham, one of the NASA "astrochimps," for his Jan. 31, 1961 flight aboard the Mercury-Redstone 2 AN APPLE FOR HAM: Ham, still strapped into his special flight couch, reaches for an apple after his flight and recovery from the Atlantic Ocean. Observing these similarities, some researchers now believe that wild primate populations could serve as virtual distant early warning systems for emerging infectious diseases in humans. In a recent issue of the journal Emerging Infectious Diseases , researchers say wild primate populations could be considered "sentinels" (N.D. Wolfe et al.

On September 10, 1993, the ASP Board of Directors approved a resolution outlining the Society's position on the conservation of wild primate populations. The text of the resolution follows:
ASP Resolution Regarding Conservation of Wild Primate Populations
WHEREAS, many wild populations of nonhuman primates are declining due to habitat loss associated with increasing human demands for agricultural land and forest products; and WHEREAS, eradication of primates as agricultural pests and hunting of primates for food are also contributing to the decline of wild primate populations; and WHEREAS, careless capture of nonhuman primates can threaten the viability of natural populations and result in unnecessary suffering, mortality, and wastage; and WHEREAS, the United States is the world's largest importer of nonhuman primates for scientific use and is a Party to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Flora and Fauna (CITES); and WHEREAS, the scientific study of nonhuman primates contributes to advances in human and veterinary medicine and yields information that is essential to the conservation of wild primate populations; and WHEREAS, all primate species are listed in Appendix I or Appendix II of the Convention and the Convention recognizes that trade in species threatened with extinction should be regulated; and

GSK Use of Wild Caught Primates And The Development of Alternatives
Background
The Issue GSK's Position GSK's use of monkeys for oral polio vaccines ... Housing and Care Conditions Background
GSK's aim is to discover and develop medicines and vaccines that will help alleviate the suffering caused by disease. Activities at GSK include research, development and manufacturing and all these activities involve the use of laboratory animals to some extent. Animals are used in the drug and vaccine development process to understand disease mechanisms, to discover novel ways to rectify them, and evaluate the efficacy and safety of potential new vaccines and medicines before they are tested in humans. In addition, regulatory authorities require that all new medications must be subjected to extensive and prolonged safety testing in animals (and in human clinical studies) before they are approved for use. For biological products, such as vaccines, specific safety and quality measures must also be met. The vast majority of animals used by GSK are specifically bred for research purposes, of which 98% are rodents. GSK also uses a small number of primates, which comprise less than 1% of the animals used by the company. GSK continues to use primates as they remain essential for testing the safety of vaccines and medicines.

9. Okapi Wildlife Reserve
UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Okapi wildlife Reserve occupies about one fifth of the Ituri Forest in the northeast of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The Zaire River basin, of which the reserve and forest are a part, is one of the largest drainage systems in Africa and has yielded a large number of major evolutionary discoveries. The wildlife reserve contains threatened species of primates and birds and about 5,000 of the estimated 30,000 okapi surviving in the wild.

Justification for Inscription:
Report of the 21st Session of the Committee Brief description:
The Okapi Wildlife Reserve occupies about one-fifth of the Ituri forest in the north-east of Zaire. The Zaire river basin, of which the reserve and forest are a part, is one of the largest drainage systems in Africa. The reserve contains threatened species of primates and birds and about 5,000 of the estimated 30,000 okapi surviving in the wild. It also has some dramatic scenery, including waterfalls on the Ituri and Epulu rivers. The reserve is inhabited by traditional nomadic pygmy Mbuti and Efe hunters. Threats to the Site:
The Committee inscribed the Okapi Wildlife Reserve on the List of World Heritage in Danger , one year after giving it World Heritage status, due to reports that the armed conflict, which spread to the eastern parts of the country in early 1997, had led to the looting of facilities and the killing of elephants in this site. Most of the staff have fled the Reserve. There have also been reports of gold mining. In the latter part of 1998 however, as a result of renewed fighting in the area, equipment donated by international conservation NGOs has been looted and the staff who were in the process of reviving conservation activities had to be evacuated.

The BC SPCA's Position on Wild Animals as Pets
The BC SPCA does not support the keeping of wild animals as pets whether primates of other wild animals commonly referred to as "exotic" animals. In those situations where wild animals are kept in captivity, the highest possible care and commitment must be in place to ensure the animals' well-being is not compromised. Exotic animals do not make good pets Wild (exotic) animals should be in the care of those trained as animal technicians, veterinarians with specialized in exotics, ethologists and other animal experts. These individuals have a demonstrated knowledge in the care, handling and keeping of exotic animals. This expertise is particularly important when caring for large social animals such as primates, wild cats and other exotic animals. Captivity for any wild animal can lead to both psychological and physiological distress, making it unjustifiable to keep wild animal as pets. Mortality rates for exotic pets are high for a number of reasons. Typically wild animals do not readily demonstrate illness as an evolutionary mechanism to ensure survival. Therefore, once an animal shows visible distress it is often too late for treatment, often resulting in euthanasia. In the meantime, the animal has endured considerable distress. Animals in this state can languish for months before eventually dying. Secondly, many animals die because their physical care and habitat needs are not adequately met. Further, many animals die in transport, whether they are taken from the wild or in transport from captive breeders prior to arriving at pet stores or at exotic animal auctions.
