Three rats in cage.

In the United States, the Animal Welfare Act (AWA) and Public Health Service (PHS) Policy on Humane Care and Use of Laboratory Animals are the two main regulations governing the use of animals in laboratories.

However
, even with the supposed "protections" afforded by the AWA and PHS Policy, millions of animals suffer and die in unnecessary, counterproductive research.

AWA and PHS regulations for animals in labs are limited in their scope and fraught with loopholes that continue to allow for both physical and psychological cruelty and suffering.
