This story published in the LA Times deserves to go viral. It raises many questions about airline bureaucracy, animal cruelty and the priorities of the US Government. Why is this a story that could only happen in the US? Thoughts?

via Animal Testing Beagle Puppy Farm Approved In Yorkshire.
Today, I overheard my wife asking in a pharmacy if a cosmetic product was developed using animal testing. We picked up the thread later and she assured me that there was a huge push back against animal testing in both the cosmetics and domestic cleaning products industries?
There are eye-watering profits in the cosmetics industry so in the 21st. century, there’s no excuse for animal testing.
It’s very disappointing that the UK which is a pet-loving country still permits animal testing and is approving this new puppy farm in Yorkshire.
Are you pushing back against animal testing?
