Experimentation on animals is morally indefensible. It's also scientifically unreliable - and there can be effective alternatives to it.

For over 100 years, the BUAV has been campaigning peacefully, legally and professionally to end animal experiments - and to create a world where nobody wants or believes we need to experiment on animals.

Our work is backed by extensive scientific knowledge and we work closely with an international network of scientists, lawyers, investigators and other experts.  The BUAV is one of the world's leading authorities on animal testing issues.
