Discover how PETA is exposing cruelty and holding experimenters accountable:

1. After hearing from PETA scientists, Fortune 500 pharmaceutical company Boehringer Ingelheim banned the forced swim test! PETA’s high-profile work persuading companies and scientists to drop this abusive test was also featured in this article from Nature, one of the world’s top science journals, and in The Scientist. In both pieces, experts agreed with us that this useless test must end.
   
2. PETA supporters paid a visit to Texas A&M University’s chancellor, John Sharp, urging him to close the school’s dog muscular dystrophy laboratory, now that lead experimenter and “King of Pain” Joe Kornegay has retired.
3. Following reports that animals suffered at the hands of incompetent experimenters during surgeries at Oregon National Primate Research Center and Washington National Primate Research Center, PETA is calling on the National Institutes of Health to pull funding from these deplorable laboratories.
4. PETA is demanding that the federal government freeze funding for Nationwide Children’s Hospital after the facility deviated from its own protocols and subjected an animal to two surgical procedures at once, in violation of the law. The animal—whose species hasn’t been revealed—was left in such bad shape that euthanasia was required.
5. The PETA International Science Consortium reached hundreds of corporate and government scientists through an inspiring, engaging webinar that discussed cutting-edge methods to replace the use of animals in laboratories.
