@Random Monkey fact of the week:

Chimpanzees were once used for vaccination research during the 1970s.

The research was in a now-abandoned research facility known as the New York Blood Centre. When the research closed down in 2005, the remaining chimps were set free. They occupied a small landmass that was later dubbed as monkey island.

I believe it's now known as the United Kingdom.
