一批曾在美国研究人员进行乙肝疫苗实验的西非黑猩猩在利比里亚接受了全面健康检查。1这些黑猩猩从1970年代到2000年代初被用于实验,超过400只参与其中,许多在幼年时从野生环境被捕获。1人道主义世界动物保护所于2015年承担了60只黑猩猩的永久照管责任,目前正为其提供长期护理。1
健康检查项目包括牙科检查、心肺检查、神经系统检查、血液检查、疫苗加强针和指甲修剪等环节。1这些接受检查的黑猩猩平均年龄为30至35岁。1通过定期健康检查,保护所能够评估黑猩猩的健康状况并为每只个体制定个性化照护计划。1西非黑猩猩被列为极度濒危物种,利比里亚拥有西非仅次于几内亚的第二多黑猩猩数量。1
A group of chimpanzees that participated in hepatitis B vaccine experiments conducted by American researchers decades ago are now receiving comprehensive health evaluations at a sanctuary in Liberia.1 More than 400 West African chimpanzees were used in experiments spanning from the 1970s through the early 2000s, with many captured from the wild during their infancy.1 The Humane Society World Animal Protection facility assumed permanent care responsibility for 60 of these chimpanzees in 2015 and has since implemented regular health assessments as part of long-term care management.1
The health checks conducted at the facility include dental examinations, cardiopulmonary assessments, neurological evaluations, blood work, vaccine boosters, and nail trimming to monitor each individual's condition and develop personalized care plans.1 The rescued chimpanzees have an average age between 30 and 35 years old.1 West African chimpanzees are classified as critically endangered, and Liberia is home to the second-largest population of this subspecies in West Africa, second only to Guinea.1
