Amgen Under Fire from Animal Rights Activists Over Testing Practices

On August 3, around 20 animal rights activists gathered peacefully outside Amgen's Thousand Oaks headquarters in Southern California. They were protesting against the biopharmaceutical company's use of animal testing for its research.

The rally was part of a nationwide movement following protests over the previous weekend. Organizers claimed that the protest aimed to raise awareness about the need for Amgen to end its animal testing practices.

According to the source, Amgen has responded by stating that their animal research goes 'through rigorous ethical review, conducted with the highest care.'
