Petition Background (Preamble):
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.

Petition:
The experiments conducted in HLS are useless and terribly cruel. Is it really necessary to test caramel food colouring on dogs, and kill them, when it's already been on the market for years? Is it really necessary to force animals to smoke, when we already know that smoking is bad for our health?
It's experiments like these that question the existence of disgusting, shameful laboratories like HSL.
They claim life saving results....
.... life saving results we've yet to see.
We, the undersigned, demand that HSL be shut down for good, and all abhorrent animals tests be prohibited.
