That is disturbing, because when you look at the PC website it makes it seem like they are outside all day long.

These chimps were born and reared for use in research. The type of conditions they had in the labs varied, but the promise and goal of retirement is to allow them the freedom to choose how they want to spend their days. When NIH made the decision to end the use of chimps for research the scientific and activist communities agreed on a couple of things, including that the remaining chimps deserved to spend the rest of their lives in comfort. For a chimp that typically means choosing who you hang out with, where you get to spend your days, when you eat and the ability to live without pain. PC isn’t meeting these basic benchmarks.

Have you tried reaching out to her directly and sharing all of your documentation with her? I can not imagine that she would ever endorse a place that fails to provide the chimps with daily access to grass and dirt and bushes. Real space for them to to what chimps need to do in order to remain healthy and to have joy in their lives. At this point it looks like they have landed in a place that offers precious little despite all they have given for humans.
