How To Fight Animal Testing

One of the biggest ways to fight animal testing is to hit the company in the wallet. If you avoid buying products that are tested on animals, then you will help the company become less profitable. There are other companies that signify that they don’t test on animals with a “leaping bunny” certification.

This means that the product was developed without animal testing. When you can purchase a product made without animal testing, you are voting for the animal’s safety. Most products without animal testing are labeled with the leaping bunny logo.

You can also help fight animal testing by sharing important videos of animals being rescued and rehabilitated from animal testing. This will help to educate your friends and family about the horrors of this industry, and also how they can help.

Another way to help fight animal testing is to support politicians who have the animals’ best interest in mind. You can help them lobby for change for the animals by showing support in their campaigns and writing letters to other members of the lawmaking community to help them become educated about animal testing.

One of the best ways to fight animal testing is to donate to organizations that help rescue animals from testing such as the Beagle Freedom Project. You can both donate to the mission of the organization and also even adopt a Beagle from the group. They do such great things for the animals and would be overjoyed to see more support.
