To prevent cruelty to animals and to disseminate animal testing for the use of human products.
What is our purpose?
"It is totally unconscionable to subject defenseless animals to mutilation and death, just so a company can be the first to market a new shade of nail polish or a new, improved laundry detergent...It's cruel, it's brutal, it's inhumane, and most people don't want it.“ - Abigail Van Buren; testifying before the House Judiciary Committee Support of the Consumer Products Safe Testing Act, March 1988

MANY DIFFERENT ANIMALS

but they don’t have feelings
…right?

Cosmetic companies perform a majority of all animal tests, but they are not the only ones.
Some other companies include: Arm & Hammer, Kleenex, Johnson’s, Banana Boat, Clorox, Crest, Glade, Huggies, Listerine, Lysol, Pantene Pro-V, Tide, Windex

What’s the point of testing when:
Animal experiments can be misleading considering an animal's response to a drug can be different to a human's.
Rats are only 37% effective in determining what causes cancer in humans.
The stress that animals endure in labs can affect experiments, making the results meaningless.
Animals are still used to test items like cleaning products, which benefit mankind less than medicines or surgery.
Most of these studies are flawed, resulting in incorrect scientific investigations that costs the American public $136 billion annually.
More than 25 billion animals are unnecessarily killed in the labs each year.

Is all of this really
necessary?

Use these effective alternatives instead:
tissue culture system
chemical assay tests human skin patches
organ and cell cultures
cloned human skin cells
computer and mathematical models
