Animal Experiments in UK Up Slightly, But Still Far Below Highest Levels
Procedures involving non-human primates decline 12 percent in 2004 compared to 2003. Full Article
Animal rights activists hit Vogue editor Anna Wintour with a tofu cream pie after she left a fashion show in Paris, France.
This is the second time this year that activists have hit Wintour with a pie, also hitting Wintour before a Chanel show in Paris.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals was quick to condemn Wintour, with PETA's Yvonne Taylor saying,
Wintour is fur-bearing animals' worst enemy because her magazine continues to feature dozens of pages of pro-fur editorials and advertising every year. She takes big glossy advertisements for fur and she refuses to run any anti-fur ads, even paid ones, so she's a big fur supporter.
Hmmm...I guess then it would be okay to throw things at Ingrid Newkirk because PETA does not accept pro-fur advertisements in any of its publications.
