How do I acquire animals from another university or non-approved vendor?
You need to submit a “Nonroutine Vendor Form” to the Animal Resource Office. The form must be filled out completely to facilitate the ordering process. You may obtain this form by clicking on Forms or from the Animal Resource Office. The sending institution must wait for our department’s approval before they may ship the animals. The average approval time for acquiring rodents is 3 – 6 weeks. For more information go the Nonroutine section of the Animal Procurement page or contact the Animal Ordering and Receiving Clerk at ext. 5-2654.
