  • An Estimate of the Number of Animals Used for Scientific Purposes
    Research Article Alternatives to Laboratory Animals 1–18 ª The Author(s) 2020 An Estimate of the Number of Animals Article reuse guidelines: sagepub.com/journals-permissions Used for Scientific Purposes Worldwide DOI: 10.1177/0261192919899853 in 2015 journals.sagepub.com/home/atl Katy Taylor and Laura Rego Alvarez Abstract Few attempts have been made to estimate the global use of animals in experiments, since our own estimated figure of 115.2 million animals for the year 2005. Here, we provide an update for the year 2015. Data from 37 countries that publish national statistics were standardised against the definitions of ‘animals’ and ‘procedures’ used in the European Union (EU) Directive 2010/63/EU. We also applied a prediction model, based on publication rates, to estimate animal use in a further 142 countries. This yielded an overall estimate of global animal use in scientific procedures of 79.9 million animals, a 36.9% increase on the equivalent estimated figure for 2005, of 58.3 million animals. We further extrapolated this estimate to obtain a more comprehensive final global figure for the number of animals used for scientific purposes in 2015, of 192.1 million. This figure included animals killed for their tissues, normal and genetically modified (GM) animals without a harmful genetic mutation that are used to maintain GM strains and animals bred for laboratory use but not used. Since the 2005 study, there has been no evident increase in the number of countries publishing data on the numbers of animals used in experiments. Without regular, accurate statistics, the impact of efforts to replace, reduce and refine animal experiments cannot be effectively monitored.

  • Derogatory Discourses of Veganism and the Reproduction of Speciesism in UK 1 National Newspapers Bjos 1348 134..152
    The British Journal of Sociology 2011 Volume 62 Issue 1 Vegaphobia: derogatory discourses of veganism and the reproduction of speciesism in UK 1 national newspapers bjos_1348 134..152 Matthew Cole and Karen Morgan Abstract This paper critically examines discourses of veganism in UK national newspapers in 2007. In setting parameters for what can and cannot easily be discussed, domi- nant discourses also help frame understanding. Discourses relating to veganism are therefore presented as contravening commonsense, because they fall outside readily understood meat-eating discourses. Newspapers tend to discredit veganism through ridicule, or as being difficult or impossible to maintain in practice. Vegans are variously stereotyped as ascetics, faddists, sentimentalists, or in some cases, hostile extremists. The overall effect is of a derogatory portrayal of vegans and veganism that we interpret as ‘vegaphobia’. We interpret derogatory discourses of veganism in UK national newspapers as evidence of the cultural reproduction of speciesism, through which veganism is dissociated from its connection with debates concerning nonhuman animals’ rights or liberation. This is problematic in three, interrelated, respects. First, it empirically misrepresents the experience of veganism, and thereby marginalizes vegans. Second, it perpetuates a moral injury to omnivorous readers who are not presented with the opportunity to understand veganism and the challenge to speciesism that it contains. Third, and most seri- ously, it obscures and thereby reproduces

Washington, D.C. 20224 Re: Global Animal Partnership EIN: 20-2234609 The Humane Society of the United States EIN: 53-0225390 Dear Ms. Ripperda: I am writing to alert the IRS to apparent use of charitable funds by a private operating foundation for the impermissible private benefit of one of its disqualified persons. Facts—Introduction Global Animal Partnership is a private operating foundation founded by, and with contributions from, Whole Foods Market. Global Animal Partnership’s sole substantial activity appears to be the operation of a program to certify that certain food products sold by Whole Foods Market. In addition, Whole Foods Market may be paying fees to Global Animal Partnership to provide services that benefit Whole Foods Market. Whole Foods Market Corporation (“Whole Foods”) is a Texas-based chain of premium supermarkets that promotes itself as “America’s Healthiest Grocery Store.” Whole Foods provides both traditional groceries and meat and poultry products, as well as prepared foods. In 2005, Whole Foods founded Global Animal Partnership (GAP), a tax-exempt organization whose principal activity is developing and promoting its “5-Step® Animal Welfare Rating Standards.” In turn, the Standards’ principal use appears to be to certify that meat products sold by Whole Foods Market satisfy the Standards. Whole Foods’ founder and long-time CEO, John Mackey, was a board member of GAP until 2014. John Mackey also serves on the board of the Humane Society of the United States, EIN: 53- 0225390, which is exempt from federal income tax under §501(c)(3) The Humane Society of the Internal Revenue Service TE/GE Division Re: Global Animal Partnership et al.

Because the main role of the SG is supporting the prisoners, the newsletter can often come over a little negative, dealing as it does with issues like arrests, court cases, prison conditions etc. But we should bear in mind that prison support is not just important for those particular prisoners, it is vital to the success of the whole animal liberation movement. To paraphrase several earlier writers involved in social struggles, any movement that does not support its political internees is a movement destined to fail. At the recent AR2009 International Animal Rights Gathering in Oslo, one of the three days was devoted to the theme of repression of the movement, and how to overcome it. We heard about how repression, which used to be mostly restricted to the UK and USA, was now spreading to other countries, such as Holland and Austria, and we heard of disturbing links between our government and theirs on the subject of how to tackle animal rights “extremists”.

  • Veterinary Students' Perception and Understanding of Issues
    animals Article Veterinary Students’ Perception and Understanding of Issues Surrounding the Slaughter of Animals According to the Rules of Halal: A Survey of Students from Four English Universities Awal Fuseini * , Andrew Grist and Toby G. Knowles School of Veterinary Science, University of Bristol, Langford, Bristol BS40 5DU, UK; [email protected] (A.G.); [email protected] (T.G.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +44-074-7419-2392 Received: 18 April 2019; Accepted: 27 May 2019; Published: 30 May 2019 Simple Summary: Veterinarians play a vital role in safeguarding the welfare of animals and protecting public health during the slaughter of farm animals for human consumption. With the continued increase in the number of animals slaughtered for religious communities in the UK, this study evaluates the perception and level of understanding of religious slaughter issues by veterinary students at various stages of their studies. The results showed a significant effect of the year of study on respondents’ understanding of the regulations governing Halal slaughter and other related issues. Whilst the prevalence of vegetarianism and veganism were higher than the general UK population, the majority of respondents were meat eaters who indicated that they prefer meat from humanely slaughtered (pre-stunned) animals, irrespective of whether slaughter was performed with an Islamic prayer (Halal) or not. Abstract: The objective of this study was to evaluate the perception and level of understanding of religious slaughter issues, and the regulations governing the process, amongst veterinary students in England. A total of 459 veterinary students in different levels, or years of study (years 1–5), were surveyed.

  • Growing Trend of Veganism in Metropolitan Cities: Emphasis on Baking
    GROWING TREND OF VEGANISM IN METROPOLITAN CITIES: EMPHASIS ON BAKING 1 2 *Kritika Bose Guha and Prakhar Gupta 1Assistant Lecturer, Institute of Hotel Management, Kolkata , 2Student, Institute of Hotel Management Catering Technology and Applied Nutrition, Pusa, New Delhi [email protected] ABSTRACT Background: Veganism is a new food trend is gaining momentum in India. A diet based on large quantities of fruit and vegetables has a positive impact on our health. A vegan diet is based on plants and has increased in popularity over the recent years. Health is the most central reason for choosing a vegan diet. Meat free diets in India can be traced back to the Indus Valley Civilization, and Indian culture shows a great respect for animals in various cultural texts. Every major Indian religion viz. Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism encourage ahinsa that is non-violence toward other living beings. In modern India bakery products have made a way into our homes. Cakes, Breads, Puddings, Pie etc. are a common thing which can be now found in every household list. The challenge is each of these products contain animal based product and people who are following veganism cannot consume them. Vegan baking is a challenge because of the use of various products like eggs, milk, etc. in normal recipes. Several Chefs and companies are working on products that are vegan. Everyday more substitutes are coming and Market is growing with a steady pace. Objective: To study and find out the trend of vegan baking in Metropolitan Cities of India and spread awareness about Vegan Baking. Methodology: The study was conducted by a random sampling survey from cities Kolkata and Delhi, taking the opinions of consumers through a self-designed questionnaire who have opted for Veganism, & their needs.

  • About Animal Aid Animal Aid Is the Largest Animal Rights Pressure Group in the UK
    About Animal Aid Animal Aid is the largest animal rights pressure group in the UK. The society campaigns against all forms of animal abuse and promotes a cruelty-free lifestyle. Animal Aid’s origins The story of Animal Aid began in 1977, when school teacher Jean Pink read a book by philosopher Peter Singer called ‘Animal Liberation’. This book exposed what was happening to animals in laboratories and factory farms. Jean couldn’t get the images of animal suffering out of her head and she decided she had to do something about it. She produced leaflets and petitions at home, and Target groups recruited a small group of supporters to hand them out The key target groups for Animal Aid’s campaigns are: to the public. The numbers of supporters grew, and Jean l the general public decided to give up teaching so that she could devote l politicians such as MPs, MEPs and government all her time to her campaigning work.

  • Animal Law Subject Proposal
    April 2006 ANIMAL LAW SUBJECT PROPOSAL Background Until recently, Animal Law has been overlooked by Australian law schools in determining their curricula. It is not, however, a ‘novel’ concept. In the United States sixty law schools teach Animal Law, including Harvard. In that jurisdiction Animal Law is not only a highly developed area of jurisprudence (e.g. a google search on ‘animal law’ returns approximately 116,000,000 hits; there is a dedicated Institute of Animal Law, Animal Law journals and specialist Animal Law firms) – but it also has a great deal of practical significance. By way of example of the practical significance of Animal Law, and how Animal Law can be utilised by lawyers, consider the work undertaken by the US organization, the Animal Legal Defence Fund (‘ALDF’). This was established in 1979 and has more than 100,000 dedicated lawyer members who apply their skills in a number of ways in order to protect the lives and advance the interests of animals through the legal system. For instance, the ‘Litigation Program’ files cutting-edge lawsuits to stop the abuse of companion animals, and animals abused in industries including factory farming and the entertainment business; while the ‘Criminal Justice Program’ works with law enforcement and prosecutors to seek maximum penalties for animal abusers. ALDF has also been at the forefront of law reform in respect of stronger enforcement of anti-cruelty laws and more humane treatment of animals. In addition to the above work, those with skills and knowledge in the area of Animal Law could also apply it to work in other specific areas of law, e.g.
