Elon Musk's implant company Neuralink has acknowledged that monkeys died as part of its testing procedures but denies allegations of animal cruelty.

More research labs are retiring primates to sanctuaries like Primates Inc., a 17-acre rural compound in central Wisconsin, where they can live their remaining years, according to t

The document says the experiments were carried out pursuant to contractual agreements between UC Davis and Neuralink. In the letter, which spans more than 700 pages, the Physicians Committee said records it obtained for the 23 monkeys used in the experiments reflect a"pattern of extreme suffering and staff negligence.

CNN has contacted UC Davis and the Board of Regents for comment. In a statement to KCRA 3, UC Davis spokesperson Andy Fell said:"The research protocols were thoroughly reviewed and approved by the campus's Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee ." Fell added:"The work was conducted by Neuralink researchers in facilities at the California National Primate Research Center at UC Davis.

In the lawsuit, the committee alleges that staff at the university"removed pieces of the skulls of rhesus macaque monkeys and inserted electrodes into the animals' brains."
