Against Animal Experiments at Utah University.
Over the past three years, there have been five instances that resulted in animals dying that have been made public at Utah University. In October of 2015 two rabbits where killed, a marmoset in December of the same year, two groups of mice in between May 2016 and January 2017, and a lamb in April of 2017. The cause of these deaths was because the university did unapproved protocols and violated federal guidelines.
Why is this important?
As an avid makeup user and animal lover, I didn't take a second thought of how companies test their products. As I began to research Animal experiments for a school paper what I found was horrific. Most of the animals being experimented on for medicine and cosmetics are being chemically burned, paralyzed and injected with synthetic drugs. Ninety percent of drugs tested on animals fail in humans because of our body makeup. Some animals are even rejected pain medicine causing them to suffer.
