MISSOULA, Mont. - SAEN, an Ohio-based nonprofit watchdog group that
monitors research facilities nationwide, has reported that the USDA has
cited the University for violating federal law.
A recently issued inspection report from the U.S. Department of Agriculture
cites University of Montana researchers for causing a degu to become
hypothermic during surgery because of the negligent and improper use of
warming equipment. The animal did not recover from the anesthesia and died.
All documents are available upon request from SAEN.
