How Like Us Need They Be? by Rick Bogle
This essay offers a powerful argument that we cannot justify using primates in harmful experimentation for the same reason that we cannot justify using people in harmful experimentation.

The moral argument to extend rights to primates rests on the same foundation as our claim to our own rights.
