US animal lab from which monkeys escaped accused of widespread abuse
Briefly

The US Department of Agriculture is examining allegations of abuse and neglect at Alpha Genesis Incorporated, where records reveal preventable injuries and deaths of monkeys since 2021.
Leaked documents indicate that between 2021 and 2023, monkeys at AGI's facilities experienced trauma and neglect, revealing a dire situation that calls into question animal welfare standards.
An extensive report shows that at least 82 monkeys suffered or died from neglect and unsafe conditions, including a case where a young macaque was found dead with its arm in a fence.
Peta’s complaint included 270 pages of evidence detailing the pain and psychological distress endured by monkeys at AGI, raising serious concerns about their treatment and care.
