Huntingdon Life Science's annual reports from 2008-2005 are available on the U.S. Department of Agriculture website. The 2008 report is available here:
This
summarizes the activity at HLS' New Jersey facility between October 1, 2007
and September 30, 2008: 905 dogs, 344 non-human primates, 156 rabbits and
10 pigs were used in experiments. Plus an unknown number, likely many thousands,
of rats and mice and other "non regulated species." The annual
report provides a brief look inside the numbers. For example, the report
notes that numerous animals at HLS were euthanized after suffering from
"test article effects," and in one experiment 44 dogs were denied
the opportunity to exercise for 40 days "during continuous infusion."
