5 Ways PETA Is Helping Animals in Laboratories This Week

  1. Following PETA’s undercover investigation into Envigo’s beagle-breeding hellhole, members of Congress have slammed the government’s own inaction to hold the company accountable.
  2. Do you live in Virginia—or know someone who does? Urge them to follow the Virginia Coalition for Beagle Protection as it fights for severely neglected dogs bred for experiments.
  3. Great news! Following PETA’s detailed scientific critique and e-mails from more than 51,000 of our supporters, the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration has removed animal testing as an option for companies wanting to make blood pressure health claims for marketing their food or beverage products in Taiwan.
  4. Robert Califf, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) newly appointed commissioner, shares PETA scientists’ goals of reducing and replacing animal testing—so our team offered guidance and requested his support for the vital FDA Modernization Act.
  5. PETA’s “owl” mascot swooped in to Johns Hopkins University with a $1 bill, offering passersby a chance to try our first-ever augmented reality tool and learn about hideous government-funded animal experiments.
