The owner of Quebedeaux's Transport denies any wrong doing in its dealings with primates.

Crates holding live monkeys are scattered across the westbound lanes of state Route 54 at the junction with Interstate 80 near Danville, Pa., Friday, Jan. 21, 2022, after a pickup pulling a trailer carrying the monkeys was hit by a dump truck. They were transporting 100 monkeys and several were on the loose at the time of the photo.The company linked to the transportation of the lab monkeys involved in an accident near Danville a year ago has ceased operations.

The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals had accused the Louisiana trucking company of illegally transporting monkeys to laboratories. PETA acknowledges DOT’s investigation into its complaint about Quebedeaux revealed a commercial monkey importer falsely listed the firm as the transport company on multiple shipments in 2022.

His post also detailed his failed efforts over the past 18 months to open a research center in Bunkie, Louisiana. Quebedeaux planned to turn a former prison into a quarantine facility that would house hundreds of long-tailed macaques imported into the U.S. for use in laboratories, PETA claimed.
