PETA alleged that Ethiopian Airlines has flown thousands of monkeys from Mauritius to Southeast Asia for experimentation.

The animal protection organisation alleged that the airline appears to have ties to an alleged illegal international monkey-smuggling ring. It also alleged that it has flown thousands of monkeys from Mauritius and Southeast Asia for experimentation in the cargo holds of passenger aeroplanes, even though it had previously told PETA Asia that it had a policy against this practice.
