How free is this?
















Remember Keiko? He was an orca who was captured off the coast of Iceland and sold to parks. If you don't recognize him as this name maybe you will recognize him for his block buster hit "Free Willy". He was then moved to an open aquarium in Oregon where he navigated to Norway and died in 2003.













Alistair Currie
is an activist who discovered what they were doing to rats and cats and other animals in laboratories. After a fight that was almost lasting two years he won the right to access certain files that have been kept in secret for years. But to obtain this right he had to search through countless dry stacks of political and medical documents. He is also working on a project with the EU ministers that would add a new directive that would potentially change the fate of millions of animals in laboratories. Also one of the things that confuse people about animal testing for cosmetics is that it is not about the products but about the ingredients that go into them. Few cosmetic companies test on animals but they do buy ingredients from companies that do.
