I have not personally written any letters, but you could choose to write popular cosmetic companies, or drug companies, or companies that make cleaning supplies. You could even start a petition. Change.org is an online petition site that is popular.
Also, support organizations like the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine who fight on a large scale level to end animal testing in the medical field.
The best thing you can do on an individual level is to avoid as much as possible buying and using products tested on animals. Look for labels that say free of animal testing and products. Research companies who are committed to not testing on animals and support them. And of course, embrace veganism!

Thank you to all, very much aware of all of it. I have been vegan and use only cruelty free products, both cosmetics and household products. But even then, its still not enough and the industry still continues to test on animals. My message is that there needs to be a global effort to stop this, not just a few thousand caring individuals. We all need to step in, vegan or not.

anahidscv-
The Mobilization For Animals held rallies in 1983 that involved hundreds of thousands world-wide.
The vivisection industry responded with gag laws and parts of the Homeland Security Act that demonize environmentalists, animal rights activists and many others.
The pharmaceutical, medical device, food and other industries continue to torture and kill millions of non-human animals every year. They do a better job hiding their atrocities than they used to.
How many anti-vivisectionist speakers do you see on TV?

That is exactly what I am speaking of ahimsa. It is the big corporations that have been controling the industry, all hidden from the public. This is just like the tobacco industry, eventually the truth will come out. The government has to pass laws to protect the animals. From what I hear some of these tests done on animals are not conclusive, and just a waste of time and waste of innocent life. Animals are not an object, they are living beings, for crying out loud, this is the 21st century, we need to stop the old thinking and move away from that.

Yes, I agree to the laws that protect animals. It must be approved immediately. Killing and experimenting of animals of all sorts are rampant nowadays. I think, we must be aware and do something about it. Let us show respect to animals. They must be treated correctly. Personally, I can't bear to see them to be there for testings just for a research.

In fact, just for testing many products scientist appeal to the different kind of animals. I want to teach this theme thanks to [url=bigpaperwriter.com/blog/stop-animal-abuse-essay]bigpaperwriter.com/blog/stop-animal-abuse-essay[/url], but there is no sense. Of course it's cruel, but we must agree with that life. It's better, than conduct experiments on people now.

Jaileen-
I'm confused by your comment. "It's cruel", but we must agree with "that life"?
Please consider reading one or more of the books I mentioned above, especially those by Dr. Ray Greek.
As I said in several of my own books, ""The history of animal research is a chronicle of illogical theories, distorted facts, ghastly errors and tragic waste."
