Sixth Investigation of Animal Abuse and Fraud In Huntingdon Life Sciences

Huntingdon Life Sciences in the UK (HLS), or Life Sciences Research in the U.S., has been exposed repeatedly committing animal abuse including punching beagle puppies in the face on tape. They torture an kill 500 animals daily, over 180,000 a year.
"Since 1997 we have constantly heard from Huntingdon's
customers, suppliers and the Government that the
beagle beating scenes shot inside HLS by Channel 4
were isolated incidents. Brian Cass the MD of HLS has
said many times in the media that things have changed
at HLS and what was filmed in 1997 no longer happens.
We can now for the first time prove this to be a lie.
We can prove that nothing haschanged inside Huntingdon
Life Sciences.

This is now the sixth yes the sixth time Huntingdon
have been exposed from 1989 now right up to date to
2006. How many more times do we have to prove that
Huntingdon Life Sciences are cruel to animals, break
the law and regularlyfalsify test data before the
British Government acts?"
