PETA was trying to get the information to find out why the university is buying cats and dogs from a West Texas animal shelter for university training or research.
I bet there's probably some ugly stuff in those records. From the Avalanche-Journal:
The university has purchased cats already scheduled for euthanasia from Odessa Animal Control since the 1980s, a shelter spokesperson, Cpl. Sherrie Carruth, told The A-J {Avalanche-Journal.}
Students training to save babies and small children in emergencies insert breathing tubes and needles into the cats, which are anesthetized during the training and then euthanized, according to HSC officials.
The university also purchased dogs from the shelter up until 2007, Carruth said.
