- Description
Three cartoons: in the first two an 'AgResearch' sign has been given Mickey Mouse ears and has a dead mouse at the top, while the first includes the words 'Mickey Mouse science' and the second 'Dickey Mouse science'. In the third a large cow contemplates a dead mouse labelled AgResearch and says "You dirty rat!" Refers to AgResearch's tests on Fonterra's milk powder. After one of five mice died in testing, the report said the batch was likely to contain botulism-causing bacteria - prompting Fonterra to withdraw the products. The mistake is reported to have cost $15 million in damage to milk formula exporters. Source: ODT 7 September. The reference to Mickey Mouse suggests the inadequate procedures in place.
