Very interesting article. Especially if you are interested in the topic of animal testing... this is advocating for animal testing (more or less), and examines those issues closely, so may go under the skin of someone who is hugely against it, but we don't often hear the side of the argument...

The actual article has an abundant amount of in-line links if you are interested in checking the sources. Could take a little while to get through the whole thing if you go through.

I watched the PETA video of how monkeys were treated in the US when we used them in lab experiments. Very depressing stuff. So China is happy to take that industry from the US as their position is "human-beings first"... but from the sounds of it, it does sound like they are having to respond to the same pressures from animal rights activists. So they are making sure to at least portray that their facilities have humane standards... compared to those labs that were in the US who were found to have been abusing their animals.

Obviously activism works.
