UW-Madison issues warning after probe into students’ role in attempted raid at Ridglan

UW-Madison will warn a student animal advocacy organization about improperly posting a flyer after investigating the group’s support for activists’ attempted April raid on the research and beagle-breeding facility Ridglan Farms.

The university’s investigation found that Animal Advocacy UW-Madison did not solicit others to attend activists’ illegal attempt to seize Ridglan Farms’ nearly 2,000 beagles, but the group is guilty of the less severe violation of improperly posting a flyer for an event, according to a Tuesday letter obtained by the Wisconsin State Journal.
