Animal rights group criticizes IU for
lab animal deaths
By APNews.com, May 17, 2018
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — An Ohio-based animal rights group is calling on the
Indiana University School of Medicine to fire staffers who allegedly
violated laboratory protocol, leading to the deaths of more than 100 lab
animals.
Stop Animal Exploitation NOW! also wants an independent investigation into
the deaths of 116 rats and mice.
The group filed a public records request for correspondence from IU to the
National Institute of Health’s Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare during an
18-month period. The documents detailed mistakes including starving mice,
performing procedures without pain control and faulty equipment.
IU officials say all incidents were self-reported and that the university is
dedicated to taking corrective action when needed. The university says it
complies with all of the health institute’s rules and has received two clean
reports during recent external site reviews.
