The mission of the Rutgers New Jersey
Agricultural Experiment Station (NJAES) Animal Care Program is to facilitate
the use of animals in research, teaching and demonstration at Rutgers School
of Environmental and Biological Sciences and Rutgers NJAES Cooperative
Extension while assuring compliance with all applicable state and federal
regulations. The NJAES Animal Care Program has been fully accredited by the
Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care
International (AAALACi) since 1993. AAALACi accreditation is widely accepted
by the scientific community and connotes a high standard of excellence in
both care and research competence. The
program cares for a wide variety of animals ranging from lizards, laboratory
animals and deer to the traditional farm animals - sheep, goats, pigs,
cattle and horses. The staff and facilities operate as a "hybrid" of
production farm, research facility and teaching operation.
