Information on animal welfare disappears from USDA website
Information on animal welfare disappears from USDA website
Information on the treatment of animals at thousands of laboratories, zoos, dog breeding groups and other facilities was suddenly removed from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's website Friday, The Washington Post reported.
The decision was a result of "comprehensive review" over the last year, according to a statement by the USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service. The removed information is now only accessible after filing a Freedom of Information Act request.
“We remain equally committed to being transparent and responsive to our stakeholders’ informational needs, and maintaining the privacy rights of individuals with whom we come in contact,” the statement said.
The documents removed included information on dog breeders, treatment of animals in circuses and other information that was previously readily available.

We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.
