Aya Katz to Libertarian Convention

I am a private researcher who has taught literacy to a chimpanzee.  My research can benefit people on the autistic spectrum who are non-verbal. I do not have Federal or State funding for this, and all I want is to be left alone on my own property to continue my work with Bow. 

However, US Fish & Wildlife have recently declared that chimpanzees are an endangered species in the United States -- even though all chimpanzees in the US are domesticated.  They are not wildlife. And they are certainly not fish! Bow was born and raised in Missouri.  I have taken care of him since he was a month old. 

I feel that our only hope is for the Libertarian Party candidates, both on the state and Federal level,to be elected to office. For this reason I want to go to the Libertarian Convention in Orlando, Florida, which will begin May 27, 2016. 

I plan to use the least expensive mode of transport and to use inexpensive accommodations. But I must pay for chimp sitting fees, and that is why I am asking for your help. 

Bow and I would be very grateful. 

Here is more information about me and Bow:
