What Happens to Animals in Labs in the Path of a Hurricane?

Nathan Herschler, September 21, 2018

After Florence hit, you saw videos of dogs being rescued, and of factory farms under water, but you never saw the havoc natural disasters cause for animals stuck in labs. Caged behind thick concrete walls and complex security systems, animals in labs suffer and die, drowning or starving behind bars. A “lucky few” are euthanized before suffering that same fate.

Demand that labs have disaster management plans that involve more than euthanizing animals. Demand that labs do better.

We are working with Lewis and Clark’s Animal Law Clinic to ensure that lab animals are protected when disaster strikes. You can join our effort and make a difference for these animals by making a gift today.
