(Yemassee, SC) -- PETA is filing a complaint with the USDA based on allegations against the research facility in Yemassee where dozens of monkeys escaped last month.
Forty-three monkeys escaped an enclosure at Alpha Genesis Primate Research Center in November.
PETA's complaint uses an alleged whistleblower report, citing supposed evidence of mistreatment, injury, and death of monkeys at the facility.
The complaint comes after U.S. Representative Nancy Mace launched an inquiry into the Yemassee research site.
