Scientific arguments against animal experiments
Medical progress is important, but animal experiments are the wrong path!
Laboratory animal statistics in Germany
A staggering 2.8 million animals have been sacrificed in the name of science in Germany in 2018.
Prevention is better than cure
Billions are flowing into animal research, and the consequences of conditions that we partly cause ourselves through our lifestyle are costing us further billions.
Why animal experiments are not necessary
Animal experiments are supposedly necessary in order to make the products we use safe and to find new therapies for sick people. However, they are in fact not suitable for judging the effects and hazards of substances for humans.
Reduction, Replacement or Abolition?
The 3R principle wants to improve animal research by replacement, reduction or refinement. However, animal experiments must not only be rejected for moral reasons, but also because they are scientifically unsound methods that deliver false or non-transferable results.
