Mindy's Memory Primate Sanctuary
Newcastle, Oklahoma
Cause Description:
Mindy's Memory is a 501-(c)-3 non-profit sanctuary
founded in 1993 with the mission of providing the
highest level of care to monkeys in need of refuge. Our
team is comprised of leading experts in the field of
animal care and represent several of the largest and
most respected sanctuaries in the United States.
Since its inception, MMPS has given a permanent
refuge to hundreds of monkeys from the pet trade or
provided retirement for monkeys used in medical
research. The primate pet trade causes untold
suffering for countless monkeys who are torn from
their loving mothers from a young age and who grow
up to find themselves ill-equipped to live with humans.
In addition, there are over 100,000 monkeys in
research labs in the US and many find themselves at
the conclusion of studies with nowhere to go. Many of
these individuals are then killed, not as part of any
experimental study but rather because there are so
few sanctuaries available to take them, and those that
do exist are all filled to capacity.
As our society becomes more serious in our
responsibilities to animals, there is an increasing need
for facilities like Mindy’s Memory to be there to provide
a second chance for these sensitive and intelligent
beings to live out the remainder of their lives in a
natural environment with loving companions.
