USDA information resulting from inspections at the
University of Florida during September of 2002 reveal violations in a
number of areas. Enclosures in three separate rooms housing dogs have " .
. . excessive amounts of feces in them. The dogs in these enclosures are
becoming soiled by the feces and also in some cases by the urine." Several
food storage rooms are contaminated with mouse droppings.
On August 26, 2002 the university is cited for
inadequate veterinary care due to an incident involving several primates.
There are two squirrel monkeys who had been used in experiments involving
food deprivation. However, they still seem to have been underweight even
after the food restrictions were removed.
