You didn't see T-Bone in there with a noose? ...............insatiable appetite.

He was maybe scouting for a fast runner for this years race to Throston Bridge!
 
This cannit be reet surely?

@No7 did you actually see these 14 deed animals carried off?

Although animals will play a role in biomedical research for the foreseeable future, we strive to use the minimum number possible. Our researchers are actively looking at techniques to refine their experiments and help us reduce – and ultimately replace – their use.

14 gorilla like bodies carried out at once seems a bit much like
 
Op seems to have stumbled upon some unsavory practices. I'd imagine they'll be testing the new range of giant dildos on him as a punishment

We counted 14. If you think that's a bad number, stay away from the CRIC at Kings Cross

8 non human primates used for 'moderate research' in 2016



The primates at Oxford spend most of their time in their housing. They are housed in groups with access to play areas where they can groom, forage for food, climb and swing.

Primates at Oxford involved in neuroscience studies would typically spend a couple of hours a day doing behavioural work. This is sitting in front of a computer screen doing learning and memory games for food rewards. No suffering is involved and indeed many of the primates appear to find the games stimulating. They come into the transport cage that takes them to the computer room entirely voluntarily.

After some time (a period of months) demonstrating normal learning and memory through the games, a primate would have surgery to remove a very small amount of brain tissue under anaesthetic. A full course of painkillers is given under veterinary guidance in the same way as any human surgical procedure, and the animals are up and about again within hours, and back with their group within a day. The brain damage is minor and unnoticeable in normal behaviour: the animal interacts normally with its group and exhibits the usual natural behaviours. In order to find out about how a disease affects the brain it is not necessary to induce the equivalent of full-blown disease. Indeed, the more specific and minor the brain area affected, the more focussed and valuable the research findings are.

The primate goes back to behavioural testing with the computers and differences in performance, which become apparent through these carefully designed games, are monitored.

At the end of its life the animal is humanely killed and its brain is studied and compared directly with the brains of deceased human patients.

Primates at Oxford involved in vaccine studies would simply have a vaccination and then have monthly blood samples taken.


OP is full of shit

I assure you, I am not

AZ - We used 194,162 animals in-house and a further 15,634 animals at external contract research organisations in 2014.

but none of them are gorillas

vast majority will be rodents and stuff like frogs and loads and loads of insects
