Couple who tortured monkeys jailed after global network uncovered

We also received comment from US animal rights group Lady Freethinker, which was also involved in tracking the network following a tip from a UK activist.

Its founder Nina Jackel said: “The horrors inflicted on innocent baby monkeys for online videos are abhorrent and strong action must be taken to protect animals from this brutality at the hands of humans.”

“Those involved in creating or distributing animal torture content for ‘pleasure’ pose a threat to both animals and people and must be held accountable.”
