Humane Society of the United States and New York Blood Center came to an agreement recently in May 2017 after years of discussion about the care of research chimps.  A team from HSUS attends the party after coming to observe efforts in March 2016. NYBC also refused to pay their original caregivers who had worked for the center and were abandoned as well.  The caregivers initially used their own meager finances to continue feeding them.  Over 60 chimps now live on six islands serving as a sanctuary run by Jenny and James Desmond to improve the dire situation in which the chimpanzees were left to die.

In March 2016, a team from Humane Society of the United States visits Liberia in West Africa to view situation with research chimpanzees abandoned by New York Blood Center, which stopped all funding for food and water and also refused to pay for their caregivers who used their own meager finances to continue feeding them. They now live on six islands serving as a sanctuary run by Jenny and Jim Desmond.  The HSUS has stepped in to assist and improve the dire situation in which the chimpanzees were literally left to die if not for the heroic efforts of their original caregivers who had worked for New York Blood Center and were abandoned as well.

  • August 14, 2017 - London, UK - London, UK. 14th August 2017. A lawyer who visited Korba 3 months after the disatrous chimney collapse holds a poster with his photographs of some of the widows at the protest by Grass roots campaign Foil Vedanta outside the Vedanta AGM. They accuse Vedanta of illegal mining in Goa, of increasing harassment, torture and false accusations against tribal activists in Nyamgiri,  Odisha, who have used Indian laws to stop bauxite mining of their sacred mountain,  eleven years of ruinous and continuing pollution by Konkola Copper Mines (KCM) in Zambia, where they say the company have fraudulently avoided taxes and failed to publish mandatory accounts and other offences. Vedanta is a FTSE 250 British mining company controlled and 69.6% owned by Anil Agarwal and his family through a series of tax havens and holding companies and was launched on the Stock Exchange in 2003 with help from the UK’s Department for International Development (DfID) and Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) who continue to support it. Foil Vedanta call for the company to be delisted and shareholder activists went into the AGM to question its activities.
