U.S. Army Resumes Gruesome Animal Testing With Weapons

In a shocking turn of events, the U.S. Army has reversed its ban on weapon-wounding tests on animals, now allowing dogs, cats, monkeys, and marine animals to be subjected to these gruesome experiments. PETA is calling for a cease-fire and a reinstatement of the ban, and we need your help!

Call the U.S. Army at 703-695-1717.

Here are some suggested talking points:

  • Please ban the use of dogs, cats, primates, marine mammals, and all other animals in weapon-wounding tests, which are currently permitted by U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command “Policy 84.”
  • Animals are poor stand-ins for humans due to significant physiological differences between species, which make the results of such tests useless.
  • These tests are cruel, deadly, and unreliable. Please adopt accurate and animal-free wound research methods, which are widely available.

After you’ve taken action on our alert, please visit the following social media pages for the U.S. Army.

Post polite comments urging them to replace the department’s cruel weapon-wounding experiments with animal-free research methods, which are more effective, ethical, and economical.
