PETA Scientists Save Hundreds of Rats and Fish After Intervening in European Union Case

PETA scientists intervened in a legal case in which the European Chemicals Agency was requiring a company to conduct tests on animals even though such tests contradicted the agency’s own requirement that animals be used only as a last resort. In this major victory for animals, PETA scientists provided evidence that helped win the case, preventing more than 500 rats and fish from enduring painful, long-term tests and setting a legal precedent to be followed in future similar cases.
