The Rise of the Animal Liberation Movement
The Animal Liberation Movement gained momentum in the mid-1990s with a resurgence sparked by UK activists. Targeting vivisection, they succeeded in shutting down numerous laboratories, including Consort Bioservices and Hillgrove Family Farm. They set their sights on the largest animal testing lab, Huntington Life Sciences, leading to the formation of Stop Huntington Animal Cruelty (SHAC).
