Cats are being tortured in experiments conducted by the University of Wisconsin! Up to 30 cats a year have were subjected to invasive surgery to their ears, skull and brain, then applied a toxic substance to her inner ears in order to deafen her. Experimenters also implanted electrical devices deep inside both of her ears during this surgery.
Experimenters justified the experiment by stating that they needed to “keep up a productive publication record that ensures our constant funding.” But no peer-reviewed papers have been published in any scientific journals as a result of the experiments. Universities should not be condoning animal experimentation and abuse. Please sign the petition to stop this!
