“No animal should die and suffer in the name of beauty.” Eliminating animal testing should be our goal, as animals are not just samples to show our human privileges; they should be treated with respect and dignity, the way deserve.

What we've seen just now is a stop motion mockumentary animated short film written and directed by Spencer Susser about an interview with Ralph, a rabbit who details his life as an animal testing subject. He is interviewed about his "job," that then he explains that as a result of the chemicals used on his body, he can't see through one of his eyes or hear through one of his ears, and he has a burn on his spine, It hurts all the time: exposing the brutal truth of animal cruelty inside the cosmetics industry. This film shows how: Given the availability of more modern, humane, and effective alternatives, rabbits still are tortured and are frequent victims of animal experimenters.

The use of such rabbits in biomedical and commodity testing is a well-known and long-standing practice. More than 161,000 of them are abused in U.S. laboratories every year due to the notorious Draize eye irritancy test, wherein personal care products, household cleaning products, and their ingredients were being applied to their eyes up to two weeks without any painkillers: frequently resulting redness, swelling, discharge, skin lesions, bleeding internally, or blindness. These abused animals deserve to be treated in accordance with their worth. It is time for us to finally take recognize of the rabbits and advocate for them.

The human-rabbit relationship is a complex one. On one level, these furry and appealing animals are almost universally beloved as symbols of harmlessness, innocence, and cuteness but if they had the ability to talk instead of just scream in painfulness, they would say: “I should be the poster child for animal rights. I am slaughtered for my fur. I am slaughtered for my meat. I am factory farmed in rabbit mills. I am tortured by vivisectors in their ‘labs.’ I am the third most commonly ‘euthanized’ companion animal. I am hunted and snared. I am the object of blood sports. I am often cruelly abused. I am given as a live animal prize. I languish in pet stores. Why aren’t I?” —Poster from RabbitWise, Inc.,

#SaveRalph is wake-up call for us to realize that animals are still being tortured for cosmetics, and right now is the moment for everyone to band together to ban it in a global level. They have rights, and it is never justified to mistreat and violate them unjustly just because they cannot sue us.
