Target: A petition to close down an animal testing lab that abuses their animals
Web site: http://www.shac.net
Description/History:
Huntingdon Life Sciences (HLS) is Europe’s largest contract animal testing laboratory.
They have about 70,000 animals on site, including rabbits, cats, hamsters, dogs, guinea-pigs, birds and monkeys. These animals are destined to suffer and die in cruel, useless experiments. 500 of them die each day.
HLS will test anything for anybody. They carry out experiments which involve poisoning animals with household products, pesticides, drugs, herbicides, food colourings and additives, sweeteners and genetically modified organisms.
HLS have been infiltrated and exposed a number of times in recent years. Each time horrific evidence of animal abuse and staff incompetence has been uncovered, including workers punching beagle puppies in the face.
Take action to have this disgrace of a company closed down. For more information please visit www.huntingdonlifesciences.com and ww.shac.net. These sites can explain it much better.

Petition:
We, the undersigned, ask that the UK government bans this awful company, and rehome the hundreds of thousands of animals that have never known a soul to love them.
We ask the government to speak for those who can't and to stop this dreadful torture, and shut this company down, who put shame on all mankind.
