Indeed, this very controversial lab (sexual acts simulated, violence against puppies, data falsification..) tests all sorts of toxic products on different species which never come out alive from this animal hell! The CAV was there (around 10 activists), armed with a giant banner with the eloquent words: “Cette entreprise gagne de l’argent sur la souffrance des animaux” (This company makes profit from the suffering of animals.). Leaflets were given out to people passing by, as well as guides to products which aren’t tested on animals. We had placards denouncing the horrors that occur in HLS. Passersby could see the damage caused by animal testing. PHYSICAL INJURY: Animals with electrodes implanted in the head, force feeding of toxic products which make them horribly sick, deliberately inflicted wounds left open so that “scientists” can apply all sorts of chemical “treatments” (the animals are literally decomposing), mutilated dogs are thrown in the trash… Images that are PSYCHOLOGICAL DAMAGE: Animals are condemned to live in cages with artificial light programmed to switch on and off at preset times, without any human affection, they live in stress and in constant fear of people in white who come to grab them and make them suffer all kinds of horrors. A young boy, around 10 years old, was playing with his friends. When he passed by our placards, he made a horrible face, he was really shocked and said “Oh no !! It’s disgusting! Animals are nice, they don’t deserve it !!”. Our question is : how can a 10 years old kid manage to understand the Certainly the lure of profits… French text and more photos: http://forum.cav.asso.fr/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=119
