Despite the argument that animal testing is necessary when developing new medicine and data, it is undeniable that the number of tests carried out annually can, and should, be reduced dramatically. Alternatives in…

outcome of Feral cats killing and reducing the population of Australian animals also impacts on the other wildlife by ruining the food chain.

This is decreasing the population of these animals fast and we cannot restore these animals fast enough, so that is why Feral cats are pests and impact…
