Covance laboratories are building a new animal torture laboratory at their site in Harrogate, North Yorkshire. If this lab is built then it will be the fate of thousands of animals every year, who will die in cruel, pointless experiments that have no value to human health. Covance have applied for a rodent laboratory. Although have just finished a new large "rodent" lab this is suppose to be phase 2, we suspect this is just a lie to cover-up what the lab is going to be use for and what animals they will experiment on in this new hell hole!

Since as early as 1999 Covance have experimented on immature rodents and Beagle puppies (Just two weeks old) but at the time didn't find primate feasible. We now wonder if this option is now feasible. The limelight has not been on Covance for some time now. Is this the perfect opportunity for them to expand in other areas of torture? We think so and this is why we are marching against this new expantion of their already huge complex and to remind us all that Covance is killing to many animal already without more labs for them to torture and murder even more! The animal need you!

On March the 20th 2000, Covance killed 64 beagles in one experiment, where they were poisoned to death. If the new laboratory gets built, it will be experiments such as these that will take place. There will be a march on Saturday 19th March 2005 against the building of the Covance Lab, and to remember the 64 beagles killed in this on experiment, as well as many others that are dying in Covance now.
Meeting 12 noon, Opposite Harrogate Train Station.
