Alamogordo Primate Facility 
            Lennie, #1423/199, was born 01/01/1962 and died 
              Feb. 23, 2002. Lennie died of heart failure, The records state, 
              " Cardiomyopathy, hepatic and pancreatic degeneration." 
            PFP is attempting to find out more about Lennie 
              and others at Alamogorgo and formerly of the Coulston Foundation. 
              Addition information will be posted about each primate as it is 
              received. 
            Documents about APF chimpanzees tell us: 
            "3. Most of the chimpanzees have either been 
              infected with one or more chronic viruses, and even if they were 
              negative controls the chimpanzees have been subjected in the past 
              to many invasive procedures such as punch biopsies of the liver 
              and anesthetic events. These procedures are thought to contribute 
              to long-term prolems in some animals with liver and renal failure, 
              and various blood abnormalities." 
            Comments like these tell us the extraordinarly 
              sloppy job these facilites do and the government regulating agencies 
              who get rich 'regulating' them. As has been determined long ago, 
              animal experiments are for the money, not for human health. 
            This information is from documents received thru 
              a FOIA request from DHHS. 
            Remember, your tax dollars continue this. Complain 
              to your elected officials.
