KILLER
LAB WANTS EXEMPTION FROM ANIMAL CRUELTY LAWS
COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS VOTE ON TUESDAY 11/27/12! CALL/EMAIL THEM TODAY!
The
Lovelace Respiratory Research Institute (LRRI) of Bernalillo County, NM has an
EXTENSIVE record of Animal Welfare Act (AWA) violations, including a federal
fine for the negligent deaths of numerous animals www.all-creatures.org/saen/media-20110613.html. The USDA has also
confirmed that LRRI is AGAIN the target of another federal investigation for
even more animal deaths.
This
lab also killed 300 primates and 100 dogs simply because they were 'no longer
needed' www.all-creatures.org/saen/articles-lrri-20120118.html. And yet, the
Commissioners of Bernalillo County are considering exempting LRRI from local
animal cruelty laws!
Please
contact the Bernalillo County Commissioners and make it clear that the Lovelace
Respiratory Research Institute MUST NOT be exempted from county animal cruelty
laws!

“The
Lovelace Respiratory Research Institute is among the most criminal in the US,
repeatedly killing animals through sheer negligence and incompetence,” said
Michael A. Budkie, A.H.T., Executive Director, SAEN. “LRRI is a serial killer.
This facility needs more regulation, not less..."
“LRRI
is not only cruel to animals, they are a danger to the people of Albuquerque,”
added Budkie. “One of the citations issued against LRRI by the USDA was for a
primate escape. LRRI routinely conducts experiments involving, anthrax, the
plague, etc. Do the people of Albuquerque want animals infected with anthrax
and/or the plague running loose on the streets?”
