The US military is still using animals for harmful simulated combat exercises and training. Take action!
It’s hard to believe that even as one of the most technologically-advanced countries in the world, the United States continues to use live animals for military testing strategies. The US military uses dogs, pigs, ferrets and rabbits as subjects in harmful and often deadly experiments to simulate combat situations. In one such test, animals are fed lethal chemicals until they die.
These practices are archaic and obsolete—new tests have been developed that don’t require the use of live animals. The results of these tests aren’t even reliable, as one can never be sure whether their impacts on animals will be the same as those on humans. The fact is, there is no real need to continue harmful experimentation on animals.
Sign the petition asking US Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter to cease the use of animals in all military testing procedures.
