MillerCoors proclaims it wants to be the best beer company in America--professing a commitment to the environment and corporate transparency. Yet it continues to support health charities that fund scientifically and ethically questionable animal experiment

Please call, e-mail, or write a letter to Cornell Boggs, MillerCoors chief responsibility and ethics officer, and politely ask him to begin funding health charities that provide vital patient services or advance research without the use of animals. Being polite is the most effective way to help these animals.

In a recent experiment by the MillerCoors-funded Muscular Dystrophy Association, 3- to 5-month-old ferrets were infected with 13 avian influenza viruses that caused extreme lethargy, diarrhea, severe neurological impairment, and death.

And in a St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital (also a recipient of MillerCoors funding) experiment, rhesus monkeys were infected with a Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIM) through stem cell gene transfers and kept sick and caged for at least 10 months.

You can go to the site and send an automatic email as well!!!! Please take action - the monkeys and ferrets thank you as do I
