Stop Animal Exploitation NOW! Resources and Links Facility Reports and Information Pennsylvania College of Optometry, Elkins Park, PA USDA - APHIS Report - 2003
Return to Pennsylvania College of Optometry, Elkins Park, PA Rats, mice, birds, amphibians and other animals have been excluded from coverage by the Animal Welfare Act. Therefore research facility 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 facility has not performed experiments on non-reportable animals. A blank form does mean that the facility 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. |
