The truth is animals only get euthanized it has a life threatening illness and is morbid. Euthanasia is used so animals will not suffer. These animals are treated better than your pet at home. Clean cages, food, water and a Veterinarian on call 24/7. Articles like this use shock words such as "kill" to get the public on there side but if it were not for these animals you would not have a lot of the medicines that you use on a daily basis. You would not have the medicine your mother or grandmother needs to sustain their lives. You would not have the treatments for soldiers when they come home form war and suffer from PTS. Within the animal research world these mice, rats, etc...are regarded as little heroes and are treated as such with so many guidelines and rules that if you are caught mistreating any of them you will be fired on the spot. The videos you see on youtube are usually old and sparked a more strict attitude in the way these animals are treated.....P.S. the word "Kill" is forbidden in the Animal Research world.

Ok,Even if L´Oreal stops testing it on animals,I´m still going to hate the company for what they did.

So i´m still never EVER using L´Oreal!

Stem cells have been around long enough to conduct these tests on instead of animals. I'm glad to know more major companies are taking steps to reducing the use of animals in their experiments. Even more so, lucky them that they will be saving millions by not using animals (which is said that they were investing SO much on killing animals for non-merit tests).

Next step, ban hunting season!
