Gavaging? Stereotaxic surgery? Cannulation

Gavaging: the administration of liquids through a stomach tube, as in forced feeding

Stereotaxic surgery: brain surgery that makes use of measurement in three dimensions for positioning an electrode, needle, etc. precisely

Cannulation: insertion of a flexible tube, usually containing a trocar at one end, that is inserted into a bodily cavity, duct, or vessel to drain fluid or administer a substance such as a medication.

If the SPCA knows of even one UBC animal being deprived of food or water it should seize it and have charges laid.... shouldn't it?
