We at the Kindness Ranch rescue and rehabilitate
former laboratory animals.
The animals who live here are just a few of the dogs, cats,
horses, pigs and others who have spent their lives in laboratories,
being tested on and used in classrooms in the name of science.
Scientists, for reasons of economics or policy, have traditionally euthanized animals when they are no longer useful to their work, but many labs are now taking a more humane approach and are willing to retire some animals to sanctuaries after the tests or semesters are over.
