Ban all animal testing
Ban all forms of animal testing. Currently 13% of animal testing carried out is required by regulators. Today we have enough historic research and data to make further testing obsolete. 32% of animals used are subjected to tests that even researchers say causes severe side affects and trauma.
According Government figures (for 2019), 3.40 million experiments were completed in GB during 2019.
Of these, 1.73 million (51%) were actual experiments on animals, which included 551,835 animals (32%) that were subjected to experiments that even the researchers considered had caused them moderate or severe suffering.
57% (984,316 experiments) were in the area of basic research – much of it driven by the curiosity of university researchers.
Only 13% of all experiments were required by regulators
