 COURTESY PETA

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) filed a lawsuit Wednesday against Oregon Health & Science University to obtain videos of experiments happening in the OHSU-run Oregon National Primate Research Center.

PETA is asking the court, under Oregon's public records law, to compel OHSU to release video footage of experiments involving macaques.
