Film z laboratorium (University of Utah) - PETA

Jak podaje m.in Nature:

An eight-month undercover investigation by a leading US animal rights group has documented alleged mistreatment of animals inside two University of Utah facilities. (...) University officials defended the lab's practices, arguing that the PETA investigator does not understand routine procedures in animal research [podkreślenie - gzyra]. "None of the things she alleges are substantive," said Tom Parks, the University of Utah's vice president for research. "It's a remarkably banal list of ordinary events in an animal-care facility." (Salt Lake Tribune)

The alleged cruelties that the PETA investigator observed, according to a PETA press release, include purposely paralyzing mice, drilling holes in monkey skulls, injecting chemicals into kitten brains, and giving rats epileptic seizures.
