Animal Welfare Institute (AWI) - Quarterly
Summary: p. 7, "Carolina Biological Supply Company charged under Animal Welfare Act". The US Department of Agriculture charged Carolina Biological Supplies Co. (CBSC), a licensed animal dealer, with five willful violations of the federal Animal Welfare Act.
The USDA's charge was supported by Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service. Charges included failure to provide adequate veterinary care, improper euthenization of at least 10 cats and embalming the cats while they were still alive.
OTHER SOURCES: AA, "Humane Enforcement," 12/1/91, p.35. A PETA undercover probe initially exposed abuses at CBSC, the nation's leading supplier of animals to schools; PETA Annual Review, 1/1/91, p.5, "Research & Investigations -- Justice for CBSC." PETA furnished the USDA and local law enforcement authorities with evidence demonstrating AWA and state violations in the form of videotapes and eyewitness affidavits.
The USDA attempted to abdicate responsibility by refusing to the overwhelming body of 'outside agency' evidence PETA had amassed against CBSC. PETA forced the USDA to deal with the case by returning evidence to the USDA and invoking the internal watchdog assistance of the USDA's Inspector General. CBSC's main cat dealer surrendered his USDA license and was denied a new one when he reapplied.

Why isn't there an expose about Carolina B. on the media? (Need accent on the end of 'expose').
ReplyDeleteCan you and any friends you have in ADL and/or PETA do it or has it already been done on 60 minutes, the Daily News, LA Times, whatever?
Glad you're getting this info out there on your website, but how about out in the real world where everybody can hear it?
This needs to be shouted from the rooftops if it hasn't been done already.
(BTW---I was going to take a hike, remember? But I agree w/ the last commenter and am so very glad you're writing about these heinous crimes on behalf of Carolina Biological).
So, can you do it? Get it out there into the media, schools, universities; reach the science departments, etc.?
I was talking with my husband about your recent posts and he told me how everybody thought he was so abnormal for leaving his biology class in the 10th grade when the students were forced to probe into the brain of live frogs.
He walked out of the class and never got over all the live frogs in the trash can kicking and struggling to live.
Now these shit-brains are injecting embalming live innocent cats w/ fromaldehyde.
Why can't someone go out there and set that place on fire with the owners in it?
What about ALF? They've got supporters who don't seem to mind that these people burn in hell.
Have they looked into this problem and tried to stop it?
PETA took undercover videos showing exactly what was alleged here. However, that was 12 years ago.
ReplyDeleteI phoned 2 of the numbers Carolina says are contrating shelter numbers. Neither is associated with any animal shelter.
Getting stuff into the mainstream media is far beyond my ability. Look how much I have been after LAAS and County and for so long, and there is barely a hit of it in the newspapers.
What I hope to do is something local, such as getting Pierce to not dissect cats anymore and use other teaching means.
They are local and I can more easily get info on what they are doing.
Dr. Shapiro might even help--I hope--since he teachers bioethics and should know there is a moral issue here.
You husband is abnormal; sounds like he has a conscience.
You have to pick your battles again these animal criminals, and ALF is concentrating on another biological firm, Huntington.
There is too much evil and too few to oppsoe it.
Pierce has already been accused of neglecting their farm animals and has a watch site:

Did you ever notice that it's over for you? The world has moved on and you are an irrelvant, impotent loser with delusions of existence.
ReplyDeleteYou are a specter. You are vapor.
Boks, Mayeda, Shapiro and everyone else you've threatened in your lttle terrorist-lite blog are all doing fine, and you are not even an afterthought.
Think what you could have done with you life.
Que Triste!

I think you have no idea how correct you are; you intend as an insult but you are right.
I fully accept your teaching. But I ask you, are you happy?

You are absolutely right. I have no delusions of the limitations of my reach.
Think what you could have done with you life.
You must recognize I do not care about my life, only the suffering of animals. I wish you could be this way. I think you could be bitchen.
Wow! Commenter #3 is mean! Why are there such mean people in the world?
ReplyDeleteI do agree that this is a moral issue, and I totally support you in the following:
"What I hope to do is something local, such as getting Pierce to not dissect cats anymore and use other teaching means."
This is a good thing! What is so terrorist about encouraging Shapiro and others NOT TO DISSECT CATS UNNECESSARILY and USE OTHER TEACHING MEANS?!
Those cats should be cremated and they deserve to have a proper burial.
Man some people just don't get it. No conscience.
No wonder there's so much unnecessary death and suffering for helpless and homeless animals, the poor, children and the elderly!
You bet some people are just a vapor. That's exactly what we are.
That statement was meant to be an insult but it was true philosophy, and I wish for the day when every single person walking this earth will have a conscience.
By that time, the earth will be no more and will become as a vapor. Good!
No more suffering for anybody then. Good.
I love my life now, but I will love it beyond a reasonable doubt then.
You did a good thing bringing to light the suffering of North Central shelter dogs in open concrete cages in the rain. More exposing misery of impounded animals and getting positive results and less worrying about where dead cats for vet students come from, please. Then you too can be bichen again!
ReplyDeleteYou miss the point. 100,000cats a year are dissected in high schools alone. What need does a high schooler have to dissect a cat?
ReplyDeleteIf I were to wait just for news about LAAS and County I might have nonthing to do for long periods. I get bis of info from activists and insiders from time to time and I follow the info up if I can and then post it.
For months and months I covered the pet food poisoning scandal.
I showed the Kern County slaugterhouse stats and covered Philly's shelter progreaa as well as Reno's.
I have covered so many things, but there is no one issue that sustains.
They all are important. Every life is important. Every life.
