LBIA & Vivisection Exports

Viv-Sucks | 01.01.2007 21:47 | Animal Liberation | Bio-technology | Ecology

In 2007, we are focusing on the export network of B&K Universal in an aim to cut off
their foreign market. Clients abroad make up approximately 50% of the breeder's
custom and if they were unable to deal with them, B&K Universal would have to close
down. More info can be found at  http://www.narn-online.com/2007

As part of this new move, we are asking B&K's local airports to refuse shipments of
animals for vivisection as we know Bantin & Kingman use them to fly their animals
out of the country. One of the nearest to the breeders is Leeds Bradford
International Airport. We have contacted the management at LBIA and they refuse to
say no to animals destined for vivisection labs. Please politely contact them:

SAMPLE LETTER:
Dear Sir / Madam, LBIA,
I am disgusted that you are willing to allow shipments of live animals for
vivisection and B&K Universal to pass through your airport.
B&K Universal breed animals for use in cruel and barbaric experiments. Beagle dogs
inside B&K are used as nothing more than breeding machines,
constantly giving birth to litter after litter of pups. Dogs from the breeders have
been gassed to death in cruel experiments, to test a compund banner for over 15
years in many countries.
Animal research is unethical and unscientific - many doctors and scientists are
opposed to it purely on the basis that it doesn't work. Results from one species
cannot be applied to another due to large anatomical and physiological differences.
I hope you come to a decision and refuse animals for vivisection to pass through
LBIA. Until that time I shall be avoiding flying through your airport.
Yours Sincerely,
