There's more than two and they are very specific and they have been going on for years. This is about frequently botched surgeries performed under duress and with unreasonable time allowed to complete those surgeries + post op recovery.

Some monkeys had to be killed because the surgery was so s***ty that they were in constant torturous pain and couldn't provide any useful testing results and had to redo the experiments. These aren't "mistakes" they are forced errors because of Elon's insane directives and deadlines.

And while all this is going on, Elon Musk is busy falsifying materials submitted to ethics oversight.
Yup this is the actual issue at hand, and "the ends always justify the means" people like covxy are why the whole "mad scientist" and similar stereotypes exist. When research goals and private interests are one and the same, you're going to get amoral shit just like with any other sector of capitalism.

And this is just the US! Imagine the horrors that go on in countries that have even less concern for animal welfare.
