Every dollar spent on animal experiments is a dollar not spent on programs that really help people. In addition to the suffering caused to animals, reliance on animal tests puts human health in jeopardy, because the physiology of animals is so different from our own. The reality is that when the March of Dimes funds animal experiments, not only do the animals suffer, but our own babies do, too. Rather than funding horrific animal experiments that maim and kill thousands of animals annually, give instead to forward-thinking health charities, such as Easter Seals or Birth Defect Research for Children, that fund only modern, non-animal research.
