A company that breeds animals for medical testing has been fined a record $35m (£27m) after 4,000 beagles were rescued from its facility in Virginia in 2022.
The fine against Envigo RMS LLC for animal cruelty is the largest fine ever issued under the Animal Welfare Act, according to the US Department of Justice (DoJ).
“Envigo promoted a business culture that prioritized profit and convenience over following the law,” Christopher Kavanaugh, the US attorney for the Western District of Virginia, said in a statement.
“This callous approach led to dire consequences: the inhumane treatment of animals and the contamination of our waterway,” he said.
Envigo’s parent company, Inotiv, has agreed to pay the record eight-figure settlement. It has also agreed to not breed dogs for the next five years.
It’s insane how colonial veganism has become. It’s quite possible to be thankful to the animals and plants that give their lives to sustain you and quite eurocentric to view those two positions as incompatible.
You need to open your eyes to the real world friend.

It is extremely awesome that you read “some cultures treat meat consumption differently” and replied, “you’re wrong” without any further comprehension of that difference. That is an excellent demonstration of how bull headed colonizers can be when pushing an agenda.
It’s excellent to see how proudly you wear that chip on your shoulder. You are wrong, and me pointing out there are 250 million Indians who are vegan shows how wrong you are. Lose the hate, get with the program.
based on your posts, you’ve convinced me to shoot squirrels with a pellet gun all afternoon.
it won’t kill them, not quickly. But I figure making a couple dozen animals suffer and die a slow death in my neighbour’s yard will create a nice balance.
Username relevant, fortunately your inbreed bosseye means you won’t hit shit.
tell that to the 3 squirrel corpses in my neighbour’s yard.
