and medical powerhouse.
"OHSU Gets Voles Drunk, Covers Up Videos, and Gets Caught by PETA
Update (June 22, 2023): In a resounding victory for transparency
and accountability, a court ordered Oregon Health & Science
University (OHSU) to pay PETA more than $400,000, after the
university went to extreme and illegal lengths to keep hidden
videos of absurd experiments on drunken voles. The court found OHSU
had engaged in “undue†and “unreasonable†delay in violation of Oregon public records law. As a sanction, OHSU was
ordered to pay costs and fees incurred by PETA.
“This victory sends a strong message to OHSU and similar entities
that accountability is paramount,†says Dr. Alka Chandna,
PETA’s vice president of laboratory investigation cases. “OHSU will now have to pay the price for trying to hide its violent
torture of drunken voles.â€
Watch the video OHSU didn’t want you to see, and then take action below to tell the National Institutes of Health to stop funding the university’s pointless infidelity experiments on drunken voles.
Like a teenager with a bad report card, Oregon Health & Science
University (OHSU) didn’t want the world to see video evidence
that experimenter Andrey Ryabinin got a bunch of male voles drunk
on alcohol in tests designed to see if they’d be “unfaithfulâ€
to their female partners. So it did everything it could to hide
it.
OHSU lied about having photographs or videos of the experiments. It
said that the videos belonged to a different institution and then
suggested that any videos that might have existed had been
destroyed. It lied so much that PETA had to file a lawsuit … then expand that lawsuit … and expand it yet again to cast a net wide
enough to ensnare all the evidence.
All PETA wanted was the visual proof—proof we knew OHSU had all along—that experimenters had slaughtered 150 prairie voles in an experiment so thoroughly unscientific and so patently ridiculous
that it would be more believable as the plot of a Scooby-Doo
cartoon than as a serious intellectual pursuit.
After years of legal wrangling, PETA has that proof—and now, so
do you."
