Animal Abuse

This isn't really part of my project but while I was looking for info on animal testing I found this.

Animal abuse is brought to justice more often then animal testing. But animal testing is just as important. I haven’t yet found anything on animal testing but I did find stories about animal abuse. Here are some of them…

He was only a 5 month old puppy that had been taken from his backyard and to an abandoned home where he was horrifically beaten. The people who were cruel enough to do this used the handle from a sledge hammer, a rock, and a beer bottle to cause skull fractures, numerous cuts, a broken leg, and a terrible eye injury. The puppy was surrendered to Homeward Bound and named Justice. He received immediate medical treatment but sadly his eye was not saveable. He was adopted when he was once again a healthy, happy puppy.


A beautiful Beagle named Emma was brutally shot and was trying desperately to pull herself out of a ditch when a fisherman found her. She came home with him where she slept under his car for 3 days when he contacted the Tipton Treasures. They sent a volunteer and she was rushed to a veterinary hospital where her many injuries were treated. Because of the gun shots, both of her hind legs were paralyzed and she didn’t have any bladder or bowel control. They fitted a small cart to help her walk and special diapers for her incontinence. She was adopted by her new owner and is being loved for the rest of her life.

These are what I came across when looking for animal testing info.
