Volunteers Needed to Help Stop 70 Beagles From Being Used for Experiments

Dear Animal Lovers,

PETA India needs your help urging authorities to investigate the wrongful importation of 70 beagles marked as "pets" into India. It appears that the dogs may actually be used in experiments at Advinus Therapeutics, and PETA has informed authorities that we stand ready to confiscate the dogs and find them good homes.

The demonstration will be held from 12 noon to 1 pm on 15 November outside the Animal Quarantine and Certification Services office, which is located at 83, Velachery Main Road, Pallikaranai, Chennai. 

If the dogs reach the laboratory, they will likely be subjected to cruel toxicity tests in which they will be injected with or force-fed chemicals, experimental drugs or pesticides in increasingly higher doses until they become very sick or die.

We need volunteers to wear white jumpsuits and dog masks and hold a banner and placards demanding the release of the dogs. If you are interested, please let me know right away by contacting me at ChaitanyaK@petaindia.org. Please include your mobile numbers.

We ask all participants to meet at the demonstration site by 11:15 am sharp for a briefing, to collect costumes and to get in place before the demonstration begins. Please let me know if you plan to attend – we kindly request that you arrive on time. Please RSVP to me at ChaitanyaK@petaindia.org.

Thank you!

Kind regards,

Dr Chaitanya Koduri
Science Policy Adviser
