- I have been asked to add the entries indicated below by an asterisk at
- the beginning of the line. This list represents a more organized list of
- Foundations that do and do not experiment on animals.
-
- As you can see, there are traditional organizations that directly
- experiment or fund experimentation on animals and there are the
- alternative medical organizations that do not. The existence of such
- reputable medical and non-medical organizations such as those listed
- below under the title "Private Health Foundations that do NOT Fund Animal
- Experiments", shows that animal experimentation can be avoided in all
- fields, including cancer.
-
- A Happy Holiday Season to you all.
