More than 1,100 companies have banned animal testing but more need to be stopped (Martinez, 2015). Some popular companies that have banned animal testing are (Gala, 2015). By not buying from companies that test on animals, you can send a message to the companies that you will not use your hard earned money to buy their products unless they switch to alternative
