Animal Testing, Nicole Vargas.

Millions of animals all around the world are forced into a cage, two sizes too small, waiting all day, wondering when the next time food will come, or if they will ever get to be free again. Imagine this, dark, cold, concrete cells, the only time they get to come out is when they are being poked and pinched with needles and chemicals. All kinds of animals are being tested from frogs, rats, rabbits, fish and birds to goats, sheep, pigs, cats, dogs and primates. Thousands of primates are used every year in chemical experiments.  Baboons, marmosets, macaques, and green monkeys are most commonly used in these experiments. Animal testing has had a long and horrific history and you can change this by encouraging the government to enforce laws that will promote the use of donor body parts and cloning to create organs for testing.  Millions of animals’ safety is depending on this!
