The difference between a "purpose-bred" and a "wild-caught" monkey is the reason animal experimenter and monkey importer Charles River Labs is being investigated by the SEC. PETA's investigation uncovered documents showing where Charles River's monkeys come from. But did experimenter Charles River tell its shareholders? If not, it could have serious consequences.

See how the case came down and why it could be a turning point for experimenters who may be forced to use non-animal methods.
