"The letter follows the October decision by National Institutes of Health announcing that the remaining chimpanzees at the Alamogordo facility will not be transferred to sanctuary," a news release from December 2019 states. Martin Henrich sent a letter to the National Institutes of Health asking for the remaining chimpanzees at Alamogordo Primate Facility to be sent to Chimp Haven sanctuary.

In 2000, legislation known as The Chimpanzee Health, Improvement and Protection Act, or The CHIMP Act, created a sanctuary system for chimpanzees used in research to find a home outside of laboratories. “This is an example of how difficult it is to get information.” “(It’s) frustrating that we don’t know who those two individuals are that died,” Bonar said. Two chimpanzees at the facility recently died, according Bonar. The facility is run by the National Institutes of Health. There are 37 chimpanzees still at the Alamogordo Primate Facility at Holloman Air Force Base. “These chimpanzees were used as unwilling test subjects and the least we can do is make sure they have a safe and comfortable long-term home.” “This issue has been very important to me… in my time in the Senate and my time in House I’ve continued to fight for the remaining 37 chimpanzees at the Alamogordo Primate Facility to be retired to sanctuary,” Udall said. Udall sponsored legislation to end chimpanzee testing in laboratories and to send the animals to sanctuaries. “So many people are working to change this situation and I don’t want to forget them as we continue with this event.” “(This) event is really honoring these chimpanzees and Danny and Kim who have been euthanized in the last year at Alamogordo Primate Facility and in honor of them and all the chimpanzees who endured long hard years in the lab without the chance to experience sanctuary,” Laura Bonar of Animal Protection of New Mexico said. These two chimpanzees and the current status of those still in the facility were the focus of a Zoom presentation called “Hope for Chimps” by Animal Protection of New Mexico that included statements by U.S. Two chimpanzees that were previously used for medical experiments at the Alamogordo Primate Facility died before they could be placed in sanctuary.
