Shut Down Huntingdon Life Sciences

Target:
HLS CEO Andrew Baker & Gordon Brown, PM
Sponsored by: 

This is the third-largest contract animal testing company in the world. Every day, an average of 500 animals die whilst being forced to inhale or ingest disinfectants, tanning lotions, toxic chemicals, coffee sweeteners, diet pills, weedkillers and numerous other products and medications. Testing on animals DOESN'T work. Each species reacts differently to things.
Video footage has been taken of employees violently shaking and punching a four month old beagle and dissecting a conscious monkey.
An estimated 12800 animals died in the testing of the artificial sweetener Splenda alone.
We cannot ignore this. We cannot turn away as if nothing is happening. We cannot let this continue. It is our responsibility to speak out against this barbaric injustice. Every living thing is entitled to do just that - live. Being kept in a cage at Huntington Life Sciences until the experiments kill you is no life. It is Hell.

I had always considered Britain to be a civilized nation, particularly caring in its concern for animals. I am saddened and dismayed to learn about the appalling treatment that Huntingdon Life Sciences visits upon hundreds of helpless animals. And quite needlessly, when alternative non-animal procedures already exist. Shame! Shut down this torture factory.

If you are not capable to test on your children, why you feel free to test on other beings ?

This kind of treatment of animals is irresponsible and inhumane. Numerous studies show that animals feel apprehension and pain just like we do. Hurting animals in these tests is immoral. If the greater part of the public were aware of the true nature of these experiments, many loyal customers would be lost. Finally, many profitable and successful companies have abandoned these barbaric practices for the new age of science. Step out of the past and into the future. Stop animal testing now!

I'm sickened by this video, and in tears. It is completely immoral to test on animals, simply because they can't stand up for themselves. Something NEEDS to be done. It's disgraceful.

Ignoble !! mais toutes les associations du monde , en faisant preuve d'une extrème bonne volonté et souvent d'un dévouement presque sans limite sont beaucoup trop passives.Il faut extraire le mal à la racine et non soigner le fruit.Il nous faudrait une bonne centaine de Paul Watson dans ce monde.
