ACA International Bows Out of the Monkey Killing Business

In yet another significant win for animals, ACA International has exited the monkey-shipping business! The U.S.-based charter brokerage company had been high on PETA’s radar for aiding the transport of monkeys to their deaths in U.S. laboratories. But the company has canceled its U.S. Department of Agriculture registration and is no longer in that sordid business, according to a June 10, 2026, inspection report. Please take a minute to celebrate this victory and then TAKE ACTION to urge your representative in Congress to support the PRIMATE Act, which would stop all imports of monkeys used for experimentation.

“Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights?”

— Ingrid Newkirk, PETA Founder and co-author of Animalkind
