The Korea Times reported on April 24, Animal rights groups have urged Seoul National University (SNU to dismiss a renowned veterinary professor, who is accused of abusing a retired working dog in animal tests.

The Korean Animal Rights Advocates (KARA), the Korean Welfare Animal Association and the Beagle Rescue Network (BRN) co-organized the event on the World Day for Laboratory Animals. “As the Animal Protection Law stipulates that working dogs are banned from being used in animal experimentation, how could Lee conduct experiments on this dog. His animal experiments with a retired working dog, which is unprecedented in the world, have become an object of derision and show the reality of animal rights in Korea,” they added.
