Ad in New York Times Targets Covance Cruelty
While the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Food and Drug Administration continue to investigate abusive
conditions at the billion-dollar animal-testing conglomerate Covance, PETA has stepped up its campaign
against Covance's cruelty by placing a full-page ad in the A section of The New York Times.
Copy from the ad reads, "Covance, the world's largest contract laboratory, is moving through the court
system to stop you from seeing images of monkeys used in drug testing. The company doesn't want you to see
videotaped evidence of monkeys who were slapped, choked, tormented, and cursed at by workers. ... It's
time for the public to see how drugs are tested and decide whether the terror and pain endured by
monkeys—like those at Covance—are worth a 92 percent failure rate for new drugs." Read more.
