then create something that no need to use animal to test it. Their lack of creativity is no excuse for using animals to be tested. They got no right to do that.

Unfortunately most products, whether as end-product or intermediate requires handling, this fact alone requires animal testing. Look at the eco/harzard section of MSDS (material safety date sheet) for any raw material/intermediate/additive in any process and there will be data on tests on guppies, beagles, chickens, pigs, you name it. And that's only for common items like Shampoos. What about pharmaceuticals? Adhesives? Paints? I agree with you that all living sentient forms need to be treated with dignity. Unless we're that shallow that we do not bother about what our eyes don't see, people don't care. Only when someone dies or is seriously injured that we humans really bother. Quite unfair, but our species would rather it be this way than another. And will remain so as long as we're the superior species on this planet.

Cheers!

Let me put Tony's point in a nutshell - pigs (and chickens, etc.) have families. The young are raised by adults (in this case, their mommy) until their grown and independent. During this time, they have a childhood, one that is quite blissful (hopefully) and they play with their siblings, mommy provides the food, comfort and protection. Commercial farms (where most of our meats are from) aren't like that. Youngborns never see their mother. Just come into this world, eat and grow till marketable size, and become our meals, kinda cruel.

Cheers!
