Content: Alternatives to Animal Testing
Instead of using animals, some scientists use human tissue generated in a lab. Eliminating redundancy would reduce the number of animals needed for testing. Too many tests are replications of tests already conducted and offer no new information. Many companies use of product ingredients that are already know to be safe for human use. Ways You Can Help Laboratory Animals
Support legislation to require stricter regulation and enforcement of animal testing, including protecting all animals subject to consumer product and medical testing. Only buy personal care and household products that did not employee new animal testing. Visit www.leapingbunny.org to find companies that do and do not test their products on animals. Contact companies that test their products on animals and let them know you will no longer buy their products. Order the free NHES brochure “Animal Experimentation and Dissection” to distribute in your community.
