The purpose of the animal use is “Stock Breeding”- Breeding projects intended to produce offspring for supply externally or used internally for other projects. Include the animals used to produce the progeny and any breeders or progeny that were culled, died or are being held. Any animals sold or used in other projects do not get counted here. **Externally Supplied - these numbers are only to be counted by institutions that currently hold Supply licences and are in the “business” of supplying, that is, the main purpose of the institution is to supply animals for scientific purposes. Animals supplied internationally and nationally are to be counted, along with animals supplied within WA. ***Culled - animals have been euthanized as they are surplus to requirements, or are supplied and culled for purposes such as animal/pet feed or to abattoirs.
