Internal Documents Reveal Michigan
State University Admits Killing Four Animals
From
Fox47News.com, October 15, 2018
Michigan State University (MSU) has confessed that it killed four
research subjects, as disclosed in internal documents which were never
intended to be made public.
MSU admitted the deaths of three sheep and a deer as well as illnesses in
other research subjects in the internal records, according to SAEN, an
Ohio-based nonprofit watchdog group that monitors U.S. research facilities
for illegal activity and animal abuse
SAEN said the correspondence documents the deaths, including a lamb which
was crushed to death, an adult female sheep who may have died of either
strangulation or a broken neck and a third sheep euthanized due to a foot
injury.
SAEN said the correspondence also revealed that a deer also died after being
anesthetized, and other animals experienced complications or were in poor
health following medical procedures.
The correspondence, added SAEN, discusses potential violations of multiple
federal animal welfare regulations including requirements for qualified
personnel, adequate veterinary care and proper animal handling.
SAEN has filed an Official Complaint with the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture
alleging multiple violations and calling for the opening of a major federal
investigation. SAEN is also urging the leveling of the maximum federal fine
of $10,000 per infraction/per animal.
"Since this lab has documented multiple failures which led to fatalities, it
is clearly time for the USDA to take action. Otherwise animals will continue
to die unnecessarily,” said Michael A. Budkie, A.H.T., a co-founder of SAEN.
