Why Animal Dissection Is So Last Century: Alicia Silverstone and Bear Speak Out
Published by Madison VonSosen.
Alicia Silverstone is well known for her compassion, whether she's promoting a healthy vegan lifestyle or exposing cruelty to animals with PETA.
Nearly 30 years after actor and PETA honorary board member Alicia Silverstone first teamed up with us encouraging students to “cut out” dissection, she’s back—joined by her son Bear—for a new anti-dissection campaign.
Their mission: to give students and parents the lowdown on why animal dissection is, like, totally uncool—and downright cruel!
In the U.S., an estimated 10 million animals, including frogs, cats, and fetal pigs, are killed and dissected every year.
They’re often obtained from facilities that breed animals solely for dissection or tear them away from their homes in nature, just so they can be cut open and then thrown in the trash. Studies have repeatedly shown that virtual dissection and other animal-free methods are more humane and effective tools for teaching biology.
There are plenty of modern, humane ways to learn about dissection.
