PETA to Run Billboards Against the University of Washington's Animal Research

Critter News

JUNE 17, 2011

I live in Seattle and, while I don't always agree with PETA, I hate the UW's animal research practices. I don't believe these animals get the quality of care they deserve for the suffering they undergo. If you "humanize" the animal and grow attached, how can you conduct experiments on it? They are so polarizing.
