Massachusetts H1948 aims to safeguard nonhuman primate infants in research institutions and product testing facilities.
Massachusetts H1948 seeks to protect nonhuman primate infants in research institutions and product testing facilities by prohibiting the removal or separate housing of these infants from their biological mothers for research, experimentation, or product testing purposes. Exceptions are made only for the medical welfare of either or both primates. The bill mandates that any separation should minimize psychological and physical distress without using sedatives or restraint equipment, and reunion should not be delayed unless medically necessary.
