Vivisection, toxicology tests, experiments on other animals. It is all appalling savagery. We have the technology to make it all obsolete. Thank you for the video.🌱

The section of animal liberation now on this was truely eye opening and deeply frustrating as a Chemistry graduate and a science educator.
The amount of shoddily done science, especially in psychology on animals is disgusting.
