Question
Hi. I am a 9th grader and have an assignment on writing a controversial topic essay. I chose the topic of animal experimentation for beauty products, with my opinion I'm hoping to show being that it is cruel and unnecessary. I have been searching the Internet for good information and proof, but have not been able to find many. I was if you had any good Web sites i could use to get some research off of, or if you had any advice on the topic. Thank you!

Expertise

I can answer general questions about many animal rights topics, to include animals in entertainment, factory farming, vivisection & research, animals used for clothing, veganism, etc.

Experience

I am a true animal lover. I started on my vegetarian path at the age of 12 and am vegan today. I believe we have abused our powers over animals and it is time we make some ethical changes. I choose to fight for animals because it is easier than just sitting around and watching the abuse continue to happen.

Organizations
I am a volunteer member of several organizations to include; PETA, PCRM, Sea Shepherd, Farm Sanctuary, HSUS, MARC, and Grey2K. The closest organization to my heart is The Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary. This place is truly amazing and its run by some really cool compassionate people. You can check them out at http://www.woodstocksanctuary.org/

Education/Credentials
Many years caring for different species of animals.
