Animals cont… FMR102-36 does not stipulate special handling

requirements for most animals, so the traditional disposal process typically applies. However, optional methods exist for some species and may be exercised without GSA’s approval or involvement.

donation to an individual who has experience handling K9s in the performance of those official duties)

Canines may be donated to an individual who has experience handling canines in the performance of those official duties FMR 102-36.365

Typical disposal process applies to nonhuman primates but transfer, donation, and sale documents must address appropriate uses of non-human primates per 42 CFR 71.53 Scientific Research Education Exhibition
