On October 8, as the IMF Fall meetings began, animal rights protesters stormed the offices of Goldman-Sachs and of Nomura in DC. Both are major stockholders in Fortress Inc, whose $100M loan to Huntingdon Life Sciences is the reason HLS is still in business. HLS kills 500 animals a day testing products like bleach and Splenda-and has been caught punchign beagle puppies in the face and dissecting live monkeys by undercover investigators.
