The 'Big Issue' Supports Animal Cruelty!
Flag_Burner | 20.07.2005 16:04 | Animal Liberation
The Northern edition of the Big Issue "Big Issue in the North" advertises for the animal testing company Covance. Here's an extract from a BUAV investigation into Covance.
"One female monkey was called, sickeningly, 'Rape; because she screamed so often. Her face was slapped when she struggled during masking. On another occasion 'Rape' was being transferred from one room to another when, our investigator wrote in his journal, "Rick was standing at the washroom door holding the monkey that the technicians call 'Rape' up to his chest. The monkey was being held by both arms and she was frantically screaming. Rick was laughing as the monkey struggled and became more stressed. Then Sandy came over and with his pen ruffled the hair on the monkey's head and then prodded her in the stomach. The monkey screamed louder and, lifting her legs, she held tightly to her head with her feet. Still screaming, and with her eyes closed, she was taken away to her cage."
