"Animals are not ours to eat, wear, experiment on, use for entertainment, or abuse in any other way." Those are the words from the animal rights activists. PETA stands for, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. PETA has more than 6.5 million supporters and members, and for good reason. PETA get their supporters and benefactors to sign petiotions, which they take to the companiesin higher power, in attempt to stop animal testing.

This picture is showing the effects from the head and shoulders brand, which are tested on beagles because of their strong sense of smell and they are a gentle dog which makes them easier to co-operate with.

This padlet was created to get across the image of animal cosmetics testing, which thousands of animals are still being forced to undertake. This page is a dedication to all animals who have been subjected to animal testing, of course the animals can't read this but its a wake up call to the humans.

I chose to do my padlet about the topic of animal testing because I feel deeply about the subject. I've always loved animals, ever since I was young, so I definitely have opinions about the topic. Why should animals be tested for cosmetics when we have modern sciences and more than capable people? Animals shoud'nt have to be tortured so women can look beautiful. Is Beauty that important? For decades dogs, cats, mice, rats, rabbits and other animals have been tested for thousands of products, millions of animals have died just for human purposes. Animals don't use the products, they are not a necissary part to play in the role of animal testing.

I chose this picture because there isn't much writing, which intrigues the people looking at it and also its simple colours.

Everyday, thousands of animals are still being tested for cosmetics, despite people thinking it doesn't happen. On estimate, 27,000 animals are still being used for cosmetics testing across the world, for the price of suffering in the name of beauty. There is no excuse for animals to be subjected to torture, especially when there are products that are safe already but with modern day 21st century science, animlas shouldn't be  test subjects.

I chose this video because 90% of animal testing cosmetics videos are very graphic and disturbing to alot of people and this video gives you short facts about what animal testing really is.

Societal acceptance of animal experimentation has largely been based on the assumption that these tests, as distressing and ethically distasteful as they may be, will ultimately benefit humans. But do they?

In 1963, when researchers sawed open the heads of chimpanzees and attached transmitters to their brains to control their impulses, the general public didn't bat an eye - because no one knew. But 50 years and numerous exposés later, the world has reeled at revelations of the suffering of animals used as test subjects. Yet researchers are still using and killing primates - and they're doing it right here, in our own backyard.

The sheer scale of animal experimentation in Australia would shock most people. In 2018 it was estimated to be over ten million animals, hundreds of them non-human primates, who were subjected to experiments in the name of science.
