[edit] Plot Summary
The Animorphs find out from Erek that the Yeerks have taken control of a meatpacking plant and a laboratory. They acquire chimpanzees and infiltrate the lab. They don't find very much information so they Tobias and Ax morph bull, thinking they would morph steer but not realizing that the DNA does not include surgical procedures, to go to the meatpacking plant. After they get there they break into a room with humans in cages. The computer tells them that it is an experiment designed to destroy the free will of the human population so that the Yeerks can take over easily, but a Yeerk scientist eventually confirms that the experiment was a total failure.
