Animal abuse allegations trigger record $3.5M fine for Dallas-based company

AP file photo From The Associated Press: SANTA CRUZ, Calif. — One of the world’s largest suppliers of antibodies used in research has agreed to pay a $3.5 million fine and cancel its research registration in order to settle government allegations that it mistreated goats and rabbits at its Santa Cruz facility. The settlement between Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc. and the U.S. Department of Agriculture also revokes the Dallas-based company’s license to sell, buy, trade or import animals. The settlement, announced Friday, requires the company to pay the fine and cancel its research registration by May 31. The USDA filed several complaints that listed violations ranging from failing to provide veterinary care to goats with wounds from coyote and snake bites or massive tumors and housing rabbits in cruel conditions, including putting them in elevated cages with open doors or in small, crowded cages. … [visit site to read more] Read More...
