An internal investigation found that researchers at the University of Kansas Medical Center have mistreated their animal subjects. 

A sloughed tail and hindlimb were found in researcher Long Zheng's lab in October, according to a KUMC noncompliance report obtained by Stop Animal Exploitation NOW!, a national watchdog nonprofit that investigates animal abuse and illegal activities at U.S. research facilities.

Zheng is KUMC's department chair for pathology and laboratory medicine. 

According to the report, investigators also discovered a cohort of rats that had undergone multiple surgeries without approval. These surgeries included a "jugular vein cutdown."

Animals should have certain rights and people who live in countries where it is possible should learn about veganism and become vegan. Sorry but what happens to these animals is unacceptable and climate change is another reason to finally leave the animals alone. Animals are not robots.
