Only resource i found on page that actually talk about alternative, work (dr. hadwen trust site dead, vivisectioninformation blog from 2012 and almost all linked site dead), and not video is https://aavs.org/
Alternative such as:
Use part of slaughterhouse animal (shift animal burden onto flesh farm industry) (BCOP, ICE)
Use method that still use animal testing but less (3T3, NHK, UDP, in vitro pyrogenicity)
Use in vitro (lab grown) cell membrane from human cell (Corrositex, EPISKINTM, EpiDermTM) only for skin test
Use different animal (TER, LLNA)
Use bacteria (Ames)
Original text make seem like animal test not necessary, but cited source say nothing of that. Only Ames even vegan (if you not consider bacteria animal too).
If post thing without understand, false information spread way faster because expect poster do due diligence.
There alternatives are still harm reduction, I agree that linkrot is a real issue and that animal testing is rather neglected by most vegans. However the fact that there are alternatives to the way we do animal testing, that quite a few are due to regulatory restrictions and not necessary in the scientific sense is not false information.
I would also like to point out that this expectation of always having a well-studied understanding with sources at the ready seems to not be applied when carnists post stuff like “animal testing is necessary”, “animal ag’s impact on the climate is negligible” etc.
There are resources on that page. That is an area I know nothing about sadly.
