| | Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty (SHAC) is an international animal-rights campaign against Huntingdon Life Sciences (HLS), Europe's largest contract animal-testing laboratory, based in Huntingdon and Occold, England, and New Jersey in the United States. | | | These laws are already among the world's strictest laws on animal use in medical testing; closing down HLS would mean displacing animal testing to smaller laboratories in the UK, they say, or moving the testing to a country with less strict laws on animal testing. | | | Animal rights extremists are highly organized and fully prepared to resort to a wide range of illegal tactics to intimidate and harass people engaged in lawful activity. |

| | This reduction in the number of animal tests, together with refinements in the methods used, brings a concurrent reduction in animal suffering, and, more importantly, the reduction in animal testing is expected to continue. | | | In addition to the potential ban on animal testing in the 6th Amendment to the European Cosmetics Directive, one of the industries strongest initiatives has been the establishment, by teh Colipa International Companies' Council in 1992, of SCAAT, the Steering Committee on Alternatives to Animal Testing. | | | Under the patronage of His Royal Highness Prince Laurent of Belgium, this symposium provided the perfect opportunity for the many dedicated researchers in the scientific community to come together and review the state of the worldwide progress in the development of alternatives to animal testing. |

| | Animal Testing |
| | The reason that animal testing is appropriate is that there are regulations in place to minimize testing and pain, the alternatives are insufficient for now, and most importantly the information obtained from experimentation is irreplaceable. | | | While animal rights groups such as PETA advocate abolishing all animal testing that inflicts pain on animals, proponents of testing cite laws and regulations which minimize pain and discomfort. | | | For animal rights activists, like People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), the answer is no. PETA pressures labs into halting experiments because they believe that animals are not to be used by humans for food, clothing, entertainment, or to experiment on (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals 1). |

| | Singer continues his "blistering indictment of so-called humane use of animals in scientific research" (LJ 12/1/75), describes the current (and still atrocious) state of animal testing, and brings up to date the activities of the animal rights movement, nascent at the time of the first edition's release. | | | As an animal rights advocate for about 8 years, I figured that it was finally time to read "Animal Liberation", hailed as the "Bible" of the modern animal rights movement. | | | Many animal advocates will be surprised to read that Singer's theory allows for the eating of animals (so long as the animals are treated well prior to consuming them), but strangely does not justify stopping there. |
