Please help! Animals are being tested with harmful substances that kills them! Barbaric animal experiments that offer dangerously misleading data obtained by testing drugs on non-human animals have already led to the cruel and agonising deaths of countless millions of non-human animal lives. Animal tested drugs have also led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of human lives .

There are countless experiments being preformed on animals those include

Acute Toxicity Tests:

Acute toxicity studies in mammals are conducted to measure a chemical's capacity to cause harm or death with a single dose.
Chemicals are administered to animals in extremely high doses via at least two of the following routes:

" Oral -- chemicals are pumped directly into the animal's stomach via a force-feeding tube or syringe.
" Skin -- chemicals are painted onto the shaved and abraded skin on the animal's back.
" Inhalation -- animals are either confined in an inhalation chamber or restrained with a breathing apparatus fixed over their mouths.

Acute toxicity studies inflict hideous suffering on animals, who may endure severe abdominal pain; diarrhea; bleeding from the nose, mouth and genitals; convulsions; seizures and paralysis before they are poisoned to death or killed by the experimenter.

Carcinogenicity Tests:

Carcinogenicity studies are conducted to measure a chemical's cancer-causing potential following lifelong exposure. Carcinogenicity studies call for the use of both rats and mice and can kill more than 800 animals per test.

Animals in these studies are exposed to toxic chemicals for their entire lives through their food, their skin or the air they breathe.

Carcinogenicity studies can go on for up to five years, during which animals can endure extended suffering from chemical- poisoning as their bodies are overcome by tumours and cancerous growths.


Repeat dose Toxicology:

Repeated dose toxicity studies expose animals to repeated low doses of chemicals for one to three months to measure the effects of multiple chemical exposures on organs such as the liver, kidneys, lungs, heart and nervous system.

Chemicals are usually force-fed to animals orally, although skin and inhalation routes are also used. These studies are typically conducted using two different species of animal, one rodent (rat, mouse, etc.) and one nonrodent (usually dogs). Repeated dose studies are highly stressful and cruel, as animals are subjected to frequent handling, restraint and inhumane force-feeding practices, in addition to suffering the toxic effects of the chemical under investigation.

The animals can suffer excessive salivation, anaemia, muscle weakness, hair loss, internal organ damage, pilo-erection (hair standing on end), vomiting (in dogs), diarrhea, coma and even death.


Those are only a few of the many life threatening experimants, please help us to stop this cruelty, animals deserve a chance to life a normal life without being confined in toxins all their lives!

This is something I am extremely passionate about...there needs to be a stop put to this once and for all. We have to find a way to stop harming and killing poor defenseless animals that have no voice. We have to be there voice. I for one and everyone I know have boycot any chemical tested on animals!!!!

Humans have no right to use animals in any form of testing. What makes us think we are superior to animals?

Animal testing is wrong and inhumaine. Anyone that supports this is disgusting, and if they actually bothered to look up some of the things that happen to the animals they would probably be repulsed. Animal testing should be stopped. It's not helpful and the animals are treated horribly. You'd probably get better results by testing on humans, but that's considered to wrong. Animal testing is wrong too, so it should be stopped.

I think animal testing is barbaric and totally unethical. I also think Joe Galea is a stupid wanker!

The Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act (AETA) poses the most serious threat to free speech and social justice advocacy in years. This bill brands nonviolent activists as terrorists and imposes unfairly harsh federal penalties on animal protection advocacy. tell your rep to vote against this. thanks
