Charles River Awareness Day in Mayo

Charles River Laboratories - Mayo's Secret Shame

Hi,

We'll be having our Charles River Awareness Day in Mayo, on Friday 28th May. There are no more seats available on our transport from Dublin, but if you'd like to meet us there you can the No. 22 bus from Busaras (http://www.buseireann.ie/pdf/1233309217-22.pdf) - a return trip costs around 26euro.

We'll be leaving Dublin at 8am, and will have an information table & display set up in Ballina from 12noon - 2pm. For more information on what we'll be doing on the day, call/text us: 086 8729 444.

***CHARLES RIVER - THE FACTS:***

Charles River Laboratories, which is one of the biggest animal testing companies in the world, has two research facilities in Ireland. They are located in: Carrentrila, Ballina, Co. Mayo and Glenamoy, Co. Mayo.

They conduct painful, live experiments on animals for the Pharmaceutical, Animal Health, Medical Device, Biotechnology and Food Industries in this country.

They are a contract testing business, which means they will test anything, on any animal, for a price. Thousands of animals are experimented on in these labs every year.

Their torturous lives are full of pain, fear, suffering and misery. Any animal that manages to survive an experiment, is killed shortly afterwards.

Animals are bred on site, both for their own use and to sell to universities and other commercial laboratories, and we have been informed by sympathisers that the species used include mice, rats, dogs, cats and horses. Over the years we have also received claims of animal bodies and toxic waste being dumped in the nearby lake, as well as reports of dogs being heard barking and howling for hours on end in breeding sheds.

How could anyone do that to an animal? These people are barbaric animal abusers, and are an absolute disgrace to humanity. Hidden behind closed doors, they have gotten away with this for far to long. But we will not stop until we expose this disgusting industry, and finally put a stop to it.

Animals are sentient beings who deserve the freedom to live a full life in their natural environment. There is absolutely no moral or ethical justification whatsoever for using any animal in this way.

***

See you there!
