My point is that if 1400 of those animals are rats, using the stat "1500 killed" upfront is a bit misleading to laypeople in my non-professional opinion. The article doesn't say, but from other articles it appears that no monkeys were killed.

There seems to be a lot of goalpost moving in this thread.

> X animals were killed!

>> Yes but most of those weren't animals the vast majority of people consider particularly intelligent / morally questionable to kill for medical research purposes

>>> But they tortured monkeys!
