Madison, Wis. — This morning, PETA known as on University of Wisconsin–Madison Chancellor Rebecca Blank to reimburse greater than $1.1 million in taxpayer funds. The demand relates to an incident in which practically two-thirds of a colony of 700 mice slated to be utilized by UW-Madison experimenter Laura Knoll have been deemed “non-critical” and killed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. PETA, which uncovered the killings in data obtained from the college, factors out that this non-essential use of animals ought to by no means have been accredited in the primary place.
The deaths of these mice got here after UW-Madison issued a directive close to the beginning of the pandemic that deans and administrators ought to “only approve essential research” and experimenters “should consider reduction or cessation of non-critical animal breeding.” PETA additionally filed a criticism with the National Institutes of Health urging an investigation into the obvious waste of taxpayer funds for experiments on animals at UW-Madison and elsewhere deemed non-essential, a criticism with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases—which bankrolled Knoll’s aborted experiments on mice—urging it to get well expended funds, and a criticism with the Wisconsin state auditor calling for an audit of UW-Madison’s animal testing as a result of of obvious fiscal waste.

“UW-Madison’s killing of mice deemed ‘non-critical’ in response to the COVID-19 pandemic makes us question why such animals are bought, bred, and experimented on in the first place if they’re considered extraneous,” says PETA Vice President Shalin Gala. “PETA is calling on federal and state regulators to ensure that this university doesn’t get away with daylight robbery at the expense of vulnerable animals and American taxpayers.”

Knoll’s experiments contain infecting mice with toxoplasmosis, decimating their immune programs by way of full-body radiation, and injecting females with hormones to allow them to “super ovulate,” after which they’re killed and their reproductive tracts are eliminated in makes an attempt to perceive the sexual cycle of the feline-specific parasite Toxoplasma gondii. As PETA’s Research Modernization Deal factors out, greater than 90% of fundamental scientific analysis—a lot of it involving animal testing—fails to lead to remedies for people and 95% of new medicines which might be discovered to be secure and efficient in animals fail in human scientific trials.
