In Defense of Animals : World Week for Animals in Laboratories

April 20–26, 2008

Imagine how powerful we could be if everyone reading this would just take a few minutes to engage in even one action for animals in labs during World Week for Animals in Laboratories (WWAIL)! Please, make a commitment today to take action for animals in laboratories — it could be as simple as making a phone call or writing a letter. Here are just a few ways to help animals during WWAIL: Take part in IDA’s Call-In Days to National Institutes of Health (NIH) during WWAIL to ask them to put an end to the use of animals in nicotine experiments. Send a letter to the editor of your local newspaper. Organize an event in your area such as a demonstration or educational table. Volunteer to set up a “Memorial Field” display that will solemnly commemorate the millions of animals who die in the name of science. Adopt an activist — help make our demos successful without ever leaving your computer!

For more information, visit the WWAIL web site.
