-------------------------------

Huntingdon Life Sciences (HLS) are the largest contract testing lab in Europe. They kill 500 animals a day in tests for products such as weedkiller, food colourings and drugs. Huntingdon Life Sciences have been exposed at least 5 times for disgusting animal cruelty and rule breaking.

Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty was set up in 1999 with the sole aim of closing HLS down. SHAC campaigns for the closure of HLS using evidence obtained in five undercover investigations at their different laboratories in the UK and USA.
HLS workers have been caught on film punching puppies in the face, simulating sex with animals in their care, cutting open primates while they are still alive and falsifying experiments to get products on the market. We can also prove that HLS workers have been caught drunk at work and dealing drugs at the labs.

Huntingdon Life Sciences have a criminal record from a British court of law for breaking the Companies' Act. They are the only UK laboratory to ever have their licence revoked by the government.

-------------------------------

The following companies were at one time associated with HLS either as shareholders, stockbrokers, market makers, suppliers or clients.In this list you will find some of the world's largest companies including all four main high street banks in the UK, the world's largest financial institution, the world's second largest bank and the world's largest insurance broker. All these companies have made clear and unequivocal statements to SHAC stating that they will never deal with Huntingdon ever again. Incredible isn't it? But there again with Huntingdon $89 million dollars in debt and with NO commercial bank and insurance company anywhere in the world prepared to deal with them it's hardly surprising.
