A horrifying German laboratory which experimented on monkeys trapped by the neck with metal clamps has been shut down. The Laboratory of Pharmacology and Toxicology in Mienenbuttel, near Hamburg, has been stripped of its licence after chilling footage exposed its cruel treatment of the animals. The worker said the animals were kept in horrific conditions, which he revealed to the world with a hidden camera. Now, LPT has been given a period of two weeks to hand over all the animals still held at the testing facility, according to NDR. The macaques breed of monkeys are small, relatively light primates, which are often used for animal experiments at LPT.
