Please leave a message to Dr Tillmann, the father of the city of "Munster" 
in Germany because he influences any decision surrounding the future of 
animal-testing laboratory Covance.

Dear Dr. Tillmann,

I am deeply concerned about the horrific torture of live animals, including 
monkeys, at Covance laboratories. Covance was exposed for terrible cruelty 
by an undercover investigation by B.U.A.V earlier this year.  I am 
considering traveling to Munster to take part in peaceful protests against 
Covance. I would appreciate it if you, in your position as "father" of the 
Münster, could ensure that Covance laboratories are closed forever. Thank 
you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you shortly.

Yours sincerely,

(Name and Country)

Dear MP,

I would be grateful if you could sign EDM 738 which calls for a total UK ban 
on animal testing for household products and ingredients. Animal testing is 
extremely cruel and of no scientific value whatsoever in determining the 
safety of a particular substance for human use because of the species 
differences.

Thank you very much for your time.
Yours sincerely,

(name and address)






Animal experiments have:
a 63% failure rate when detecting human carcinogens
a 75-95% failure rate for detecting drug side effects
a 70% failure rate for detecting drugs which cause birth defects
Success rates lower than those achieved by uneducated guesswork.

This is not science!!
