AUSTRALIA:
DOUBLE BETRAYAL
Greyhounds sacrificed by the racing industry
and
in the name of science
Evidence of ex-racing greyhounds used in horrific
experiments...
http://www.thylazine.org/photogallery/knight.html
The greyhound industry is passing on countless greyhounds
that are no longer fast enough or making them a profit by selling or donating
them to vivisection laboratories for experimentation, dissection, and surgical
training.
These helpless victims that have already been betrayed by the racing industry
are adding to the number of tortured animals suffering in vivisection laboratories.
They endure living in cramped cages in fear for their lives. They are being
abused as "subjects" of painful and horrific experiments and then
ending their days lifeless on laboratory slabs, dissected and used as body
parts.
You have the power to stop this:
1. Please write to the following universities, institution and charities urging
them to stop experimenting and dissecting animals.
2. Additionally write to the racing authorities and racing ministers urging
them to stop the donating, selling or passing on of Greyhounds to vivisection
laboratories.
3. Contact your local & national media and expose the suffering endured
by greyhounds and other animals in laboratories.
4. Protest outside these establishments, list of addresses see: http://www.thylazine.org/photogallery/knight.html
