Stop Animal Testing and Research at University of Wisconson

The University of Wisconsin-Madison is planning to hold monthly forums on its Animal Research Programs. The first forum was expected to happen in November 2010.

It seems unlikely that scientists who make their living torturing animals truly want the public to know exactly what happens in their laboratories. The picture the scientists paint in the forums will likely be the same rose-tinted picture we always receive from vivisectors: animals who are well-cared for, lovingly tended, and gently probed for the cure for cancer.

The recent inspection was a follow-up of the USDA's December investigation, which charged the university with 20 violations, such as inadequate post-operative care of dogs and unsanitary facilities. According to the report, the USDA found several offenses, including expired medications and cockroach-infested primate holding rooms.

An inspection conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture July 17 revealed further breaches of the Animal Welfare Act by the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

In addition to signing this petition, please contact the research faculty and let them know you oppose animal testing and research laboratories. They are inhumane torture chambers for animals, waste money creating useless jobs for scientists who make a living torturing animals, and do not benefit human medicine. Enough research has been done on animals in the past for science to know all they need to know.
