🐟Our latest study has revealed a shocking number of #fish used for chemical testing in the #EU - despite rules to use #animaltesting only as a last resort. With the upcoming revision of EU's chemical law, #REACH, it's time to adopt #animal-free methods! Read more: www.humaneworld.org/en/news/hund...

#BCOstrichFarm #OstrichFarm More crocodile tears on the news this morning, as phoney animal loving ostrich farmers cry foul on the execution of innocent animals they themselves had every intention of killing If this story upsets you, go vegan & help prevent further atrocities such as this one 💔

‘Tears & anger’, but once again no mention of what this #ostrich farm produces & whether or not these animals are doomed regardless… Also no mention of the need to END livestock farming - THE ONLY actual solution to curbing the burgeoning risk of future pandemics 😷 #H5N1 www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

When the crates busted open on that Mississippi freeway, several monkeys inside experienced a brief moment of freedom… before they were hunted. FULL STORY: riseforanimals.org/news/hunted

☠️ The “lethal dose” test was first introduced in 1927 to determine the amount of a chemical or substance that kills 50% of a group of animals. It is still in use despite progress in animal-free science. As the #EU prepares to update its chemicals law, REACH, we can end LD tests for good.

Alert: Hundreds of long-tailed #macaques from #Mauritius are currently imprisoned in small crates on board #SmartLynxMalta, being subjected to multiple international flights & stops in Ethiopia, Greece, France, Iceland & the USA; their fate to suffer & die in US testing labs.

Happening today: Hundreds of monkeys exported by #Mauritius to suffer & die in testing laboratories in Europe & USA. Shame on @Ramgoolam_Dr & @SeeMauritius - the reputation of Mauritius as a holiday paradise is tarnished by this utter inhumanity to long-tailed #macaques.

Nearly 400,000 fish have been used in chemical safety tests required by the EU’s REACH regulation—with a further 530,000 to 690,000 projected to suffer following recent regulatory changes. www.humaneworld.org/en/news/hund...

From witnessing cruelty in a monkey lab to 20+ years fighting for animals—Kathleen’s story shows why we won’t stop until testing ends. 🩵🌎🐾 #EndAnimalTesting

We mourn the loss of Dr. Mu’ath Abu Rakba. Dr. Mu’ath was the head veterinarian at Sulala Animal Rescue, the only registered animal rescue in the Gaza Strip. He dedicated his life to caring for animals, and in the midst of the humanitarian crisis of the last two years, gave his all.

Ever wondered what happens to the animals in research facilities across the US during a government shutdown? @riseforanimals.bsky.social has the answers: riseforanimals.org/news/governm... #animalprotection #animalrights #stopanimaltesting #AnimalResearch #Animals #USpoli #USA 🇺🇸 #AnimalCruelty

Don't talk to me about fucking change if you can't even begin with something as simple as what's on your plate. Every single social justice advocate or eco warrior who isn't Vegan is a disingenuous and flaming hypocrite.

Live animal use in surgical training is being replaced by ethical, human-relevant models like those from Operative Experience Inc.—now backed by a multi-million-dollar Air National Guard contract for trauma readiness simulators. www.cbs42.com/business/pre... #SurgSky #MedSky #SurgEd #MedEd

This is how change for animals often happens—it is an uphill and slow progression. That is why we are working to hasten an end of animal experimentation where advanced non-animal methods already exist. www.humaneworld.org/en/blog/anim...

In 1927, scientists introduced the “lethal dose” test—designed to kill half of test animals. Today, various versions of lethal dose tests are still used in chemical and pesticide testing, causing immense suffering. Science has evolved. Regulations should too. Sign to end this: hwfa.link/bs101325

During a @euractiv.com Policy Triangle discussion, experts, including our Jay Ingram, emphasized the urgency of aligning regulations with scientific innovation, particularly regarding the expected roadmap of @ec.europa.eu to phase out animal testing.

Scientists: We need to reduce meat consumption to keep food production within planetary limits. EU consumers: We like alt protein and know what's meat and what isn't since it's obvious. EU politicians: Let's legislate language to protect the meat industry. www.foodnavigator.com/Article/2025...

Kamala Harris was correct about everything she warned us about.

This is huge! Premier Doug Ford wants to BAN experiments on cats & dogs following Animal Justice’s investigation exposing a secret animal testing lab at St. Joseph’s Hospital 👏🐱🐶

NEW op-ed from our ED @camillelabchuk.bsky.social: St. Joseph’s Hospital is ending dog experiments after our exposé. Premier Doug Ford has promised new laws to ban dog & cat experiments—but we also need federal leadership & funding for #CrueltyFree alternatives.

We’re challenging the status quo to advance #ScienceWithoutSuffering! Our recent workshop in Scotland brought together global experts dedicated to advancing human-relevant methods instead of animals in medical research. We stand united in our belief that the future of #science is #animal-free!

🎾🐔 Last night, demonstrators took the fight for hens straight to #SobeysStadium for the #NationalBankOpen! As thousands watched the match, banners inside & above the stadium drew attention to an upcoming release exposing systemic cruelty at a major Sobeys egg supplier 💔🥚

🧪 Canada should be leading the way in modern science using existing alternatives—not subjecting dogs to horrific, invasive cardiac experiments. Our director of campaigns, Alanna Devine, spoke with CTV News about the disturbing tests happening inside St. Joseph’s Hospital. #SaveStJosAnimals

⚠️ While the hospital is shutting down the dog testing program, pigs & rodents continue to suffer in other cruel research. Join us in calling for an immediate end to all animal experiments, & help us ensure all survivors are rehomed ⬇️

🚨 BREAKING: St. Joseph's Hospital is IMMEDIATELY ending all experiments on dogs 🐶 This win comes just days after whistleblowers exposed the hospital’s secret dog lab. Now we must make sure all survivors are rehomed & replace cruel experiments with animal-free alternatives. #SaveStJosAnimals

In a victory for free speech, a federal judge ruled that @uwmadison.bsky.social 's blocking of social media comments critical of its use of animals in horrific experiments is unconstitutional. Former primate caretaker @madelinekrasno.bsky.social won her appeal in the 7th circuit.

Great news for #rabbits in the EU! 🐰🎉 The rabbit pyrogen test—an outdated method used to assess the safety of medical products like vaccines and pacemakers—is officially replaced with a modern, #animal-free method. The new requirements officially came into effect this month!

You’ve heard of 🐴 horses. You’ve heard of 👟 shoes. You’ve heard of 🦀 crabs. But the horseshoe crab? Yeah, they’re none of those things. 👀

Animal Justice is intervening in a precedent-setting case at the Ontario Court of Appeal—filed by a veteran firefighter who went hungry after being denied appropriate vegan food while on duty. This case could reshape Canadian human rights law! ⚖️ #CdnPoli

Connecticut just became the first US state to require labs to give rabbits, guinea pigs & ferrets a chance to be adopted into loving homes after experiments have ended. These animals deserve love, not death. This law is a win for them—and a powerful step toward ending the cruelty of animal testing.

🇧🇷🐰🎉 After a 12-year campaign led by Humane World for Animals, Brazil has voted to ban the sale of cosmetics tested on animals! The ban will enter into force after President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva to signs the bill. Read more: www.humaneworld.org/en/news/braz...

🚨 Legal breakthrough in #Spain: A court has ruled that pollution from pig and poultry “megafarms” violated residents’ human rights. #Factoryfarming doesn’t just harm #animals — it poisons communities and ecosystems too. This decision could set a powerful precedent.

The European Council and the @europarl.europa.eu have reached a deal on the “One Substance, One Assessment” (OSOA) package which includes A Common Data Platform on Chemicals (CDPC) designed to support a stronger commitment to #animal-free science.

On hold to my IT helpdesk as my Microsoft authenticator app is asking me to open my Microsoft authenticator app to authenticate my Microsoft authenticator app. Most excellent use of my limited time.

A horse named Rider was tragically killed after being injured in the 2025 #CalgaryStampede chuckwagon races, marking the 110th animal death in ~40 years. Animal Justice has filed a complaint with authorities, demanding an investigation.
