5 Things you didn’t know about animal protection and animal rights
Fact 5: 92% of drugs tested on animals fail in human trials In fact, the National Institutes of Health reports that 95 out of every 100 drugs that successfully pass animal trials and go into human clinical testing fail during the human clinical trial phase.The problem is that species differences are too vast that animal results are a relatively poor approximation of what will happen in humans or, at worst, dangerously misleading. That is why activists want to advance science to the point where preclinical tests are based on human biology. That should better predict what will happen to real human volunteers or patients in the clinical trials.

5 Things you didn’t know about animal protection and animal rights
Fact 4: In the U.S.A animal abuse is tracked like homicides and assaults are Since 2016 the FBI of the United States of America tracks animal cruelty like it tracks homicides and assaults. Before that year, crimes that involved animals were lumped into an “All Other Offenses” category. In changing this, they have classified animal abuse as a “Group A felony”. The legal substantiation of doing this was if people are able to abuse animals, there is a good chance they would do the same to a person.

5 Things you didn’t know about animal protection and animal rights
Fact 3: South Africa’s legislation protects domestic animals – not wild animals The right, held down in the legislation, called “The Animal Protection Act” from 1962 outlines acts of cruelts that are prohibited. These violations are summarized on a detailed list. That list includes deliberate acts such as overloading, causing unnecessary suffering by confining, chaining or tethering, abandonment, and also acts of negligence such as unnecessarily denying food or water, deliberately or negligently keeping in a dirty or parasitic condition or failing to procure veterinary assistance.However this legislation does not appear to extend to wild animals when they are not in captivity, or to fish (Gazette, 1962). Furthermore there is no official right that follows up with the protection of wild animals.

5 Things you didn’t know about animal protection and animal rights
Fact 2: In Germany, the constitution gives animals the same rights given to humans Even the Nazi Party put into place some tough laws pertaining to the protection of animals when they came to power in 1933. Adolf Hitler is believed to have said "Im neuen Reich darf es keine Tierquälerei mehr geben." ("In the new Reich, no more animal cruelty will be allowed.")

5 Things you didn’t know about animal protection and animal rights
Fact 1: The genetic material of human beings and great apes resemble one another up to 99.4 percent The genetic material of humans and our nearest relative, the chimpanzee, are from 93.5 to 99.4 percent equal. In other words: On average the difference between a chimpanzee and a human being stands at 1.5 percent. This is why researchers and scientists demand fundamental rights for great apes.

Really enjoyed a great walk amongst leemurs spider and howler monkeys cappucines and all sorts of monkeys that love to tear around your feet and then run up trees to perform acrobatics. This beautiful sanctuary has the most caring and polite staff although there is a no touch policy some visitors tried incessantly to play with them. Personally I was relieved to just watch their antics and enjoy the commentary from an informed and very pleasant guide. Lovely visit to a very worthwhile sanctuary. This is a place to come back to.

Excellent must do activity whilst here in Plettenberg or surrounding area. It's great to see the monkeys up close and have them feed and run around whilst you stroll through the forest on your guided tour. Our guide was very helpful, informative and friendly (Andrew) highly recommend this activity.

It is brilliant to know that animals can be homed free of bars and also in a place where they can be harassed by people as little as possible but still allowing us to see and learn about them. Every animal welfare organisation in the world should strive to be like this. I LOVE this place.
