My theory is that there must be someone who works at the lab and disposes of animals.
Considering that theres a wet market nearby and the person disposing of animal corpses is likely not earning much money they flogged them through the market as a side hussle.
Wildly speculative and nothing to back it up, but that makes more sense to me than some severe breach of protocol by staff actively working with samples etc.

- peteradio 5y agoIt is terribly possible. As a 20 year old kid I was part of a two man crew responsible for transporting dead research animals. I have no idea what credentials the guy I was with had. But its not like this was even the only thing he did. When we were done with animal duty it was off to haul recycled books. That man possessed high degree of trust from the University authorities, I wonder if it was formalized in any way. To be very clear, this guy had an unbelievable character and work ethic. I've maybe met a dozen guys who just oozed it and he was one of them.
