Camp Beagle
A non-stop protest camp, and surrounding exposure campaign, calling to shut down MBR Acres Ltd and ban animal testing in the UK. MBR Acres Ltd is Britain’s biggest puppy factory supplying toxicology testing labs.
It hides behind government backed secrecy clauses in the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act, which basically state that we are not allowed to know what goes on inside animal experimentation establishments.
Camp Beagle defines itself as a strictly lawful campaign of a public awareness, pressure tactics, industry exposure and to challenge the current law with scientific and ethical arguments.
Non Animal Methods are the way forward.
The UK is dragging its heels behind the US who have just made it no longer mandatory to use animals for regulatory testing. This is due to advances in modern science and the proven superiority of Non Animal Methods (NAMS) which are more effective, efficient and compassionate.
Parliamentary Debate
Camp Beagle has brought a successful petition and eagerly awaits the parliamentary debate on Monday 16 January.
