The following is a message from NZAVS (The New Zealand Anti-Vivisection Society) who need as many people as possible to sign their petition and end animal testing in New Zealand:

Every year around 300,000 animals are still used for science in NZ. Many of these animals are sadly forced to endure cruel and barbaric experiments.

As NZAVS is the only non-profit in NZ with the sole focus of defending animals used in science, it’s important that we work as efficiently and quickly as possible to end animal experimentation. For this reason, we are going straight to the source of animal testing and demanding that the NZ Government made long-overdue changes to this archaic industry with our latest petition!

The important changes our petition is asking for include:

Better allocation of funding

Stronger laws

Greater openness and transparency

Check out the petition and see the complete list of changes we are demanding here:  www.endanimaltesting.co.nz

Did you know that animal testing still happens in Aotearoa, New Zealand? With around 300,000 animals being used in science each year here, something needs to change!
