Disturbing undercover footage from a Spanish research facility that tests on non-human animals came to light in April. Cruelty Free International (CFI) published the footage recorded at Madrid-based Vivotecnia. It showed numerous cases of apparent cruelty, some of which may have fallen foul of the law. EU law dictates that research facilities must choose methods of testing that cause the least amount of pain and suffering. Yet CFI recorded Vivotecnia staff, for example, drawing blood out of the eyes of conscious rats. CFI said the procedure should happen under anesthesia. Previous CFI investigations have shown “barbaric” mistreatment at other labs in the EU too.
