Please join local PETA supporters outside the venue for the Society for Neuroscience annual meeting, where many animal experimenters will gather. Right now, millions of mice, rats, rabbits, primates, cats, dogs, and other animals are locked inside cages in laboratories across the country. They languish in pain, ache with loneliness, and are deprived of everything that’s natural and important to them.
Among them are monkeys imprisoned in the laboratory of Elizabeth Buffalo, a notorious vivisector at the Washington National Primate Research Center, whose laboratory has infected, tormented, and killed monkeys; wasted taxpayer dollars; repeatedly violated the federal Animal Welfare Act; and failed the scientific community.
Thousands of primates have died at the University of Washington’s primate center. Some monkeys were strangled, starved, or mauled to death. Others choked on their own vomit, had their limbs mangled, were given the wrong drugs, or died from uncontrolled diarrheal diseases.
We need to stop cruel animal experiments immediately! Will you join us at this protest?
Here are the details:
WHEN: Monday, November 16, 2026; 11:30am – 1pm ET
WHERE: Walter E. Washington Convention Center - 801 Allen Y. Lew Place NW, Washington, DC 20001 (Please see map here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/bo7BLUbqG9q2dp9S9)

We have a required dress code! Please dress sharply in business or professional attire and wear close-toed shoes. We must ensure that the focus remains on the animals without any distractions that could shift people’s attention.
All materials, such as posters and leaflets, will be provided.
Please refrain from bringing dogs, as there might not be a comfortable place for them to lie down during the protest.
Outreach events are a fun and effective way to help animals and meet local advocates, so be sure to invite others!
