Animal rights campaigners who halted Cambridge plans to build a primate

research center have succeeded in temporarily closing the Oxford

Department of Pharmacology this past weekend, for fear of invasion by

demonstrators against the university's new animal house, under

construction nearby, Oxford pharmacologist Les Iversen told The Scientist.

 

" We are now receiving the full brunt of the victorious group that managed

what they consider a triumph in Cambridge, " said Iversen. " There are

demonstrations every 3 or 4 days. They are small and peaceful, but

meanwhile, behind the scenes, they are targeting vulnerable groups, like

in this case the building contractors-their vehicles have been attacked,

tires slashed, paint poured. "
