Research facilities in Florida

It only stands to reason with as many universities we have in Florida, some of them would use animals in their research. It is something I had not thought of before, since many universities with medical schools do just that.
I was interested to read this blog item about a lawsuit filed by the HSUS to have those facilities post what they do.
Anyone who has ever had to deal with facts and numbers from a facility which doesn't want to give them up, knows it can be a pain in the butt. Because of the Animal Welfare Act and the Sunshine Laws in Florida, it shouldn't be this way but it is.
I found it interesting, the biggest research facilities had not posted their numbers yet.
If you want to make people sit up and take notice, ask them why they are using animals instead of finding other options.
Just some interesting reading from the Animal Rights people in Florida.
