5 Ways PETA Is Helping Animals in Laboratories This Week

  1. PETA Science Consortium International e.V. has been shortlisted for the prestigious Lush Prize in Science!
  2. In Louisiana, U.S. Department of Agriculture inspectors have documented serious and chronic violations of the federal Animal Welfare Act in the laboratories of Tulane University and its associated Tulane National Primate Research Center, where monkeys have been forced to live in squalid outdoor enclosures.
  3. Live near the “Research Triangle” in North Carolina? Don’t miss PETA’s eye-opening “Without Consent” exhibit during its stop at Wake Forest University.
  4. PETA supporters gathered at a University of Washington Board of Regents meeting to urge the school to close the failing Washington National Primate Research Center.
  5. The unironically named Safer Human Medicine intends to construct a space in Georgia to confine as many as 30,000 monkeys for use in deadly experiments. PETA primate scientist Dr. Lisa Jones-Engel attended a recent city council meeting to rally residents against the planned facility.
