ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — The National Institutes of Health decided to relocate nearly two dozen retired research chimpanzees from a facility in New Mexico to a sanctuary in Louisiana, a move celebrated Friday by animal advocates who have been fighting for years to get the animals moved.

The retired research chimpanzees, which had previously been deemed too frail to move, will be relocated to a Louisiana sanctuary.

About two dozen chimpanzees deemed too feeble to be moved a few years ago will be going to Chimp Haven after all. The NIH said originally they'd be kept in New Mexico for their own safety.

Eli Sanders had two long touchdown runs in the first quarter and Devon Dampier had a go-ahead touchdown pass in the fourth to lead New Mexico to a 21-16 victory over San Diego State.

The San Diego State Aztecs (3-5) and the New Mexico Lobos (3-6) play on Friday, November 8, 2024 at Snapdragon Stadium in a clash of MWC foes. This game will be airing on Fox Sports 1. Watch every college football touchdown,
