Which of the following is NOT one of the three major requirements introduced by the 9185 amendment?

• A. Mandatory training of all personnel
• B. Psychological well-being for nonhuman primates
• C. Exercise standards for K9s
• D. Adequate cage labeling for all animals

Answer: (D)

The main concept here is recognizing which additions the 9185 amendment to the Animal Welfare Act actually made. That amendment focused on three specific welfare and compliance enhancements: mandatory training for all personnel involved with laboratory animals; ensuring psychological well-being for nonhuman primates through enrichment and appropriate housing; and establishing exercise standards for dogs to guarantee regular physical activity and stimulation. Adequate cage labeling for all animals, while important for identification and record-keeping, was not introduced as one of those three major new requirements. So labeling is not part of the 9185 additions, making it the correct choice.
