PETA is leading the global movement to end experiments on animals. Through our vigorous campaigns, sponsorship and promotion of non-animal testing methods, and collaborations with companies and regulatory agencies, we’re stopping the suffering that animals endure at experimenters’ hands.
Here are just a few highlights from the recent work of PETA entities worldwide:
- We’re rallying supporters to challenge the University of Washington’s plan to get mice to develop post-traumatic stress disorder and force them to fight.
- PETA is preventing hundreds of dogs from being stabbed and killed in archaic medical training by providing state-of-the-art simulators in Mexico.
- With help from our supporters, PETA shot down a dangerous “lab-gag” bill that would have allowed experimenters in California to ignore state open-records laws and hide what they do to animals in publicly funded laboratories.
- A whopping 200,000 people have taken action through our online alert urging Johns Hopkins University to stop implanting electrodes into barn owls’ brains.
- PETA is preventing millions of animals from being cut open in classrooms. See how we’re promoting sophisticated teaching software and empowering students and educators to oppose dissection.
