207 miles completed. The movement continues.

“Animal testing is cruel, wasteful, and expensive, and it still doesn't guarantee safety or effectiveness in humans. Worse, it can mislead us and slow down real scientific progress. It's time to end animal testing and invest in modern, cheaper, more accurate, human-relevant methods that don't require animal torture. Just like the lobotomy, animal testing will one day be recognized by the public and by medical experts as one of the most shameful and tragic chapters in medical history.”

“The science and the ethics agree: animal experimentation must be a thing of the past. When we replace unreliable animal experiments with modern, human-relevant testing methods, human medicine dramatically improves. Replacing animal experimentation is a win-win for humans and animals.”

“Marshall BioResources is the last massive U.S. dog breeding facility supplying the animal experimentation industry, but it is not insurmountable. Piece by piece, PETA, other organizations, and a network of grassroots activists have dismantled the dog experimentation pipeline—from helping rescue more than 4,000 dogs from Envigo to saving nearly 2,000 beagles and closing Ridglan Farms. We are proud to stand with everyone working to close Marshall and move us one step closer to a future in which no animal is bred simply to suffer and die in a laboratory.”

“I have spent my life haunted by two rhesus monkeys I saw in the Indiana University psych lab when I was five years old. They were in individual cages, little room to move around, unable to touch each other and so tormented that they had pulled out their fur, scratched open sores on their skin. I don't know what was done to them, but it had driven them mad. To this day, I remain amazed that no one but a five-year-old child seemed to see this evil for what it was.”

“Animal research seriously harms or kills hundreds of millions of animals annually, for very little human gain. It wastes enormous medical and scientific resources that should be used helping patients more directly, through clinically-focused research. For the sake of both people and animals, this cruel and inefficient research should be consigned to the dustbin of history.”

“How we treat animals is a reflection of our humanity and consciousness. Science and advancement in technology have proven there are more effective means, yet animals endure unimaginable pain, suffering and torture every year in the name of progress.”

“Every movement for justice begins with people willing to show up. If we want to end the suffering of dogs and cats in laboratories, we have to make it impossible to ignore.”

“I'm here to fight for anyone locked in a cage. That's why I'm standing with the March to Abolish Animal Testing.”

“We can end animal testing by pressuring companies, engaging with our elected officials, and relentlessly informing society of its inherent cruelty. I’ve documented animals in labs and breeding facilities, and my photos and videos prove they live horrendous lives. We can change that. The March to Abolish Animal Testing will make this issue visible, and We Animals and I are in full support. No animal deserves the fate of the lab.”

“Veganism is not only a diet but a lifelong mission to end animal cruelty and enslavement. We are proud to bring Capital Region vegans together in support of the march against animal testing.”

“Jesus ended the sacrifice of animals some 2,000 years ago. To sacrifice animals in the name of science is incompatible with Christian belief and principles. All Christians should oppose vivisection, because it echoes the brutality that was inflicted upon our Lord.”

“Confined and deprived, all day, all night, over and over. It’s all they will know, with no escape. They can’t even have a dream about anything else.”

“At Vegan America, we believe every purchase is a vote for a kinder world. Ending animal testing is part of that same fight. We’re proud to stand with MAAT and help make this march a turning point for animals everywhere.”

“Developing and validating human-relevant research methods can improve science while reducing animal suffering. We should invest in replacing animal use wherever reliable alternatives exist, and we should strengthen transparency and animal protections during the transition.”

“This is a historic moment in the movement to end animal experimentation, and this unprecedented march shows the passion and determination driving that change. NAVS is proud to stand with everyone taking to the streets and demanding a future without animal testing.”

“It’s 2026 and I’m in shock that some of my favorite brands have been testing on beautiful beagles. I remember when the monkeys that are being tested on was a big issue, which I find horrific, but now we have a lifelong family pet — the beautiful calming solitude, loving beagle. Please stand with us and stop the research for everyday household products and make up on these beautiful dogs. We need to stop animal testing altogether.”

“At SPCA International, we believe science can, and must, move beyond animal testing. Innovative, human-relevant methods are creating more predictive, effective approaches to research while sparing millions of animals from suffering. It's time to embrace modern science and build a smarter, more humane future for both people and animals.”

“Every animal deserves a life free from suffering and exploitation. At v-dog, we believe compassion should extend to every species, which is why we’re proud to support the Save The Dogs March to Abolish Animal Testing. Together, we can raise our voices for a kinder, more humane future where animals are treated with the respect and protection they deserve.”

“Society changes when people are willing to lead boldly, work together, and create a compelling vision for how things could be different. I’ve spent much of my career working with leaders, and I know the courage and persistence it takes to challenge unjust systems. Ending animal experiments will require exactly that kind of leadership. This march is a powerful way to make that demand visible and build the momentum we need for a more compassionate society.”

“The March to Abolish Animal Testing is a testament to an idea whose time has come. For the past 150 years, conscientious individuals have decried this cruel practice, and contemporary advances have rendered it outdated and unnecessary. Now a group of dedicated people are spending two weeks away from their homes, jobs and families to save dogs and other animals, salvage decency, and bring science into the 21st century. Godspeed.”

“I am grateful for the medical advances that have helped so many, while also believing we can and must accelerate the move toward more effective, human-relevant methods that do not depend on animal suffering. Animal testing for cosmetics and personal care products is especially unnecessary and must end.”

“Every animal used in a laboratory is an individual whose life matters. We have the science, technology, and responsibility to move beyond animal testing. Furever Ferrets Sanctuary stands for a future where innovation does not require suffering, and we will keep raising our voices until every cage is empty.”

“I sing for animals because their sensitivity deserves to be heard. If we can recognize their capacity to feel, we can no longer ignore their suffering. Stop animal testing.”

“At Tamerlaine Sanctuary & Preserve, we believe compassion and scientific progress should never be at odds. Every animal is an individual capable of experiencing fear, pain, comfort, trust, and joy, and no animal should be made to suffer when better, human-relevant methods can advance science. We are proud to stand with the March to Abolish Animal Testing in calling for a future where innovation is measured not only by what we can achieve, but by how compassionately we achieve it.”

“I was so proud to have played a role in negotiating the deal to get the beagles out of Ridglan Farms, and it was so joyful for me and other advocates to carry these beleaguered dogs out of that breeding and confinement facility and to deliver them into safe settings for the balance of their lives. Now we need a similar outcome for the animals trapped in cages at MBR. If it’s wrong to put Ridglan beagles through invasive testing, it’s also wrong to subject MBR’s beagles, cats, and other animals to similar torments. It has never been more important for people who care about the well-being of all animals to get off the sidelines and into the fray.”

“BBDPPE Inc. stands with the March to Abolish Animal Testing in calling for an end to the use of animals in laboratory experimentation. We believe compassion, equity, and a commitment to healthier communities must extend to all living beings. We are proud to support efforts that challenge outdated systems and advance a more humane future.”
