This initiative is being spearheaded by Mara, who has been fighting on behalf of Bill and Rosemary since she was 12 years old.  Please help her in this very worthy cause.

The Sequoia Park Zoo is waiting for Bill the chimpanzee and Rosemary the bear to just die to get out of having to improve their "enclosures".  What this zoo (penitentiary) has done to Bill and Rosemary and the other poor inmates is despicable.


Hear the latest on their heartbreaking story:




Sign the petition:




Bill the Chimp
     and this is poor Bill.


If you're interested in more action on behalf of Bill and Rosemary, please email and/or write the AZA asking for them to not re-accredit the Sequoia Park Zoo until they upgrade their inhumane primate and bear enclosures. 

The hearing is on Sept. 24, 2006. 


Here is the address, if you're interested: dlewis@aza.org  Mr. Denny Lewis, Director, Accreditation Programs, AZA, 8403 Coleville Road, Suite 710, Silver Spring, MD 20910
