Rock Center received unprecedented access to the Texas Biomedical Research Institute in San Antonio, Texas where chimpanzees are being experimented on to find a cure for Hepatitis C, a potentially deadly virus affecting four million Americans.

To see what retirement looks like, Rock Center visits the National Chimpanzee Sanctuary in Louisiana, Chimp Haven.
