Delray Beach, United States - February 05, 2025 Tensions flared at a University of Massachusetts-Amherst (UMass) event at Seagate Golf Club, where PETA supporters confronted university leadership over controversial animal testing conducted by Agnès Lacreuse. The peaceful protest, calling for an end to cruel experiments on marmosets, was met with hostile reactions from attendees, who shouted profanities, destroyed signs, and forcibly removed the activists. PETA representatives condemned Lacreuse’s experiments, which involve invasive procedures on marmosets to study menopause, a condition the primates do not naturally experience. The group calls for an end to the research and the adoption of modern, animal-free alternatives.
