(Natural News) Disturbing video footage captured by the animal rights group Humane Society of the United States shows puppies being force-fed toxic chemical drugs as part of experiments at Inotiv Inc.’s testing lab at Mount Vernon, Ind. Workers at the company were reportedly assigned to oversee some 70 different toxicity studies commissioned by more than […]

(Natural News) Undercover footage from a whistleblower revealed that a laboratory in Mount Vernon, Indiana had been conducting tests on monkeys and beagles. An undercover investigator working at the behest of the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) recorded the footage at Inotiv Inc.’s Mount Vernon facility. For seven months, he was assigned to work […]

(Natural News) A “tribute” mosaic portrait of Dr. Anthony Fauci, comprising hundreds of images of monkeys and beagles he and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) are accused of being responsible for having “tormented and killed in cruel experiments,” was unveiled by animal rights group PETA after a recent glimpse into the […]

(Natural News) Apparently, monkeys outperform humans when it comes to coming up with strategies. This is according to new research by a group of psychologists from Georgia State University, who conducted a test that pitted the cognitive flexibility of humans against those of monkeys. The test, as described in the journal Scientific Reports, involved 56 humans and […]

(Natural News) Scientists have long considered capuchin monkeys to be one of the most intelligent monkeys in the world. These small primates have been observed using tools in their natural habitat in the wild. A recent study by archaeologists in Brazil shows that this tool use has been part of the capuchin’s history for much […]

(Natural News) In their rush to unveil some kind of workable vaccine for the Wuhan coronavirus (CoVid-19), scientists have begun deliberately injecting live monkeys with a deadly form of it in the hopes of very soon rushing to market a commercial jab. According to reports, some 2,400 innocent monkeys have thus far been infected with […]

(Natural News) At least one species of monkey seems to understand that low-frequency sounds travel much further than high-pitched ones. Whenever a Geoffroy’s spider monkey (Ateles geoffroyi) gets separated from its group, the animal deliberately reduces the pitch of its calls. By lowering the frequency of its voice, the isolated monkey makes itself heard over […]

(Natural News) A new French study recommended that human populations reduce their interaction with wild animals, especially primates like apes and monkeys. Reducing contact with animals decreases the risk of contracting a zoonotic disease that might develop into an epidemic. One of the perils to human health comes from disease-causing microbes that usually live in animals but are capable of infecting […]

(Natural News) We’ve come to expect questionable behavior by the Chinese government, so it’s not surprising to learn that they had a hand in a recent project that saw monkeys being cloned and gene edited to show symptoms of mental illnesses. In the concerning experiment, Chinese scientists used CRISPR/Cas 9 technology to remove the BMAL1 […]

(Natural News) Social group size has nothing to do with the evolutionary process that increased the human brain’s size, a new study reveals. The scientific community has previously believed that the expansion of peer-to-peer and social interaction, more commonly known as the social brain hypothesis, may have contributed to the increase in brain size by enabling early humans […]
