The National Institutes of Health approved a plan to invest in and study animal-free, human-relevant research methods. Many of the recommendations formally and repeatedly made by PETA were included in the plan, some nearly verbatim. The program is expected to fund $35 million to $40 million a year to “significantly advance understanding of human health and disease.”

“Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights?”
— Ingrid Newkirk, PETA Founder and co-author of Animalkind
