English
Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty (SHAC) is a global campaign which operates all over the world to close down Huntingdon Life Sciences. SHAC campaigns in numerous countries and target HLS, their sales offices, their clients, their financial supporters and many other companies or individuals involved in the seedy world of Huntingdon Life Sciences.
Huntingdon Life Sciences (HLS) is the largest contract testing
laboratory in Europe. They have about 70,000 animals on site, including
rabbits, cats, hamsters, dogs, guinea-pigs, birds and monkeys. These
animals are destined to suffer and die in cruel, useless experiments.
HLS will test anything for anybody. They carry out experiments which
involve poisoning animals with household products, pesticides, drugs,
herbicides, food colourings and additives, sweeteners and genetically
modified organisms. Every three minutes an animal dies inside
Huntingdon totaling 500 innocent lives every single day.
Huntingdon Life Sciences is the most exposed laboratory in the world.
In recent years they have been infiltrated and exposed at least seven
separate times for disgusting animal cruelty and rule breaking. Each
time horrific evidence of animal abuse and staff incompetence has been
uncovered, including workers punching beagle puppies in the face.
