Rats, mice, birds, amphibians and other animals have been excluded from
coverage by the Animal Welfare Act. Therefore research T.E.I.
Biosciences, Boston, MA reports do not include these animals. As a
result of this situation, a blank report, or one with few animals
listed, does not mean that a T.E.I. Biosciences, Boston, MA has not
performed experiments on non-reportable animals. A blank form does mean
that the T.E.I. Biosciences, Boston, MA in question has not used covered
animals (primates, dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, pigs,
sheep, goats, etc.). Rats and mice alone are believed to comprise over
90% of the animals used in experimentation. Therefore the majority of
animals used at research facilities are not even counted.
