Approximately 11.5 million animals are experimented on every year in europe. These experiments allow animals to be legally abused; they are poisoned; deprived of food, water, and sleep; subjected to skin and eye irritants; subjected to psychological distress; deliberately infected with diseases; subjected to brain damage; paralysed; surgically mutated; burned; gassed; force-fed; electrocuted; and killed.

In the UK, animal testing is banned for cosmetics, however it is not banned for medicine. I personally think that this is a little bit silly, as we trust that the fake skin cells used in labs are good enough to test out cosmetics on, and we know it works, yet we still use animals for medicine even though we have an alternative.

In some countries, animal testing isn't banned, and companies actually pay thousands of pounds (or whatever currency is used) for other companies to carry these experiments out.

However, we can try to stop this. By signing this petition, you could help support the ban of animal testing and save thousands of animals lives.

The animals are dying as you read this, so what are you waiting for?
