Who's There?   Alamogordo Primate Facility (APF)
A listing of 286 chimpanzees held at APF – separated by decade of birth. Of the 286 living there at the time of the original census, 176 remain, according to data provided by the facility in June 2011.
In June 2010, NIH decided to not renew their contract with Charles River Labs and instead have all the chimpanzees at APF moved to the Southwest National Primate Research Center in TX. To date, at least 14 chimpanzees have been transferred to Southwest. The remaining ones were scheduled to be transferred by early 2011; however, in January NIH decided to delay the transfer "pending an Institute of Medicine in-depth analysis to reassess the scientific need for the continued use of chimpanzees….”.

APF holds 35 chimpanzees born prior to the 1975 ban on capturing free-living chimpanzees in Africa, indicating that some may have been captured from the wild as infants. The facility also holds four chimpanzees born after the 1995 voluntary federal breeding moratorium. Of the current population, there are 28 elder females and 67 elder males.
Chimpanzees are considered elderly beginning at 25 years for males (DOB 1986 or earlier) and 30 years for females (DOB 1981 or earlier).*
If you have current or historic information on the chimpanzees held at this facility, please email releasechimps@neavs.org.
