PETITION TARGET:
Michigan State University President Kevin Guskiewicz
Uranus, a gentle beagle, was "donated" to a lab at Michigan State University at just 7 months old
A day after his 2nd birthday, researchers killed him and cut out his eyes as part of cruel glaucoma experiments.
Log notes state that he was bright, active, and responsive five days before his death.
For years, the university has been killing beagles -- many of whom have been bred to have glaucoma, a painful disease that damages he eye's optic nerve and can cause blindness -- and dissecting their eyes, according to documents obtained by Lady Freethinker.
Uranus - along with up to 202 beagles like him -- was part of these horrific tests, which have failed to produce any new treatment or cure for humans or dogs to date.
[snip]
These horrific and painful experiments -- which have also consumed at least $1.3 million of taxpayer-supported dollars since 2022 -- are being conducted on defenseless dogs, even though there are already medications and surgeries to treat glaucoma.
Please sign our petition urging Michigan State officials to immediately end these cruel, outdated experiments in favor of ethical, human-biology based approaches, secure adoptive homes for the surviving dogs, and commit to never testing on animals again.
