Each year inside British laboratories, around 4 million animals are experimented on. With over half of all animal experiments now taking place in universities it is crucial we speak out to end animal suffering and progress beyond wasteful, costly and cruel research.
Oxford used 236,429 animals in experiments in 2017, the most of any university. This figure was an increase of about 10,000 over two years.
