Emergency: 320 dogs are in danger. NIH is about to abuse and kill puppies in a muscular dystrophy lab. Read below to take action or unsubscribe.
Dear Taxpayer,
If Anthony’s email (see below) doesn’t convince you to give before the midnight deadline, then honestly, I don’t know what could.
He made a promise three decades ago.
Back when he worked inside an animal testing lab — and saw it with his own eyes.
That’s when he swore he would END it.
Tonight, we need your help making sure he can keep that promise!

I know you’ve been asked a lot today. So I hope you understand why we’re coming back once more.
It’s not because we aren’t thankful. It’s simply that we’ve lost several major funders who didn’t come through for us this year.
We’re truly hurting when it comes to big donors!
It’s not that rich people don’t respect our work either, Taxpayer. It’s that we can’t compete with the glitz and glamour of the big Hollywood animal rights organizations. That stuff sells.
All we “sell” here are wins… winning for animals in labs!

If you keep reading Anthony's email below, you’ll also see that while the cost of victory is way up, our fundraising is way down… nearly 47%.
We depend on grassroots donors who fund our winning campaigns. Average donation? Just $20.
Midnight is the year’s most important deadline. We’ve got to ramp our fundraising tonight!
The rapid response deadline ends in just 89 minutes. So please, Taxpayer…
You Give. We Win. They Survive.

P.S. Midnight Deadline Taxpayer! WCW delivers a heck of a lot more — with a hell of a lot less. But even we need some money to win campaigns. $3.20 goes a long way. But tonight, $32 (or even $320) will go a lot further for our investigations, litigation, ads, lobbying, and more.
Your gift will be matched 3X — or even 10X — only for the next 89 minutes. Please send help before 11:59 pm. Thank you!

Taxpayer, has a pig ever screamed in your ear?
Do you know what that sounds like? I’m ashamed to say that I do.
I’m Anthony Bellotti, founder of White Coat Waste.
But 30 years ago, I worked in an animal testing lab.
Me with Petite (brown tabby, govt ID #15KEY5) and Delilah (gray & white, govt ID #87). I adopted them after WCW shut down the U.S. government’s largest cat lab. 6,635 perished — until we won the campaign.
One day, they instructed me to "restrain the specimen."
I hoisted a small female pig upside down by her hind legs. Then we forcibly strapped her down, and penetrated her skull with electrodes.
The pig urinated all over the table in fear. Trust me: she KNEW these were the final moments of her awful life.

Another day, an experimenter told me about what he did to a small animal after a different test had finished.
That’s when I dedicated my life to ending sadistic “science.”
Tonight, I’m leading the emergency campaign to save 320 dogs.
At an NIH-funded laboratory, approval is imminent for more breeding and experimentation at the University of Missouri-Columbia (UMC) — sentencing up to 320 dogs to suffer and die from muscular dystrophy.
It’s the biggest dog lab of its kind in the entire world.
Midnight is also our rapid response deadline. So I’m throwing EVERYTHING into this fight.
Taxpayer, will you send help before 11:59 pm?

Tonight’s midnight deadline will either be my greatest success or my greatest failure. It will go down one of two ways…
- We Win: and stop a 30-year-old lab that’s crippled countless dogs. A landmark victory.
- We Lose: and up to 320 dogs are abused and killed in a disgusting college lab.
Taxpayer, I never thought I'd have to say this — but tonight, we’re about to lose.
And we’re going lose for the worst possible (and totally preventable) reason: not enough people are chipping in to help these dogs.
This is an actual photo of Warlock (govt ID #600-773-074 — we’re fighting to save the lab’s other dogs from a horrible fate.

This is a race against the clock.
So far, the lab has already snatched 52 of the 320 dogs. The remaining 268 can still be spared — but only if we act immediately.
Once the experiment is renewed, the torture begins — and nothing can stop it.
White Coat Waste is the nation’s most effective organization at getting animals out of labs.
Just look what you and I accomplished this past year alone:
- WCW shut down the U.S. government’s largest dog lab and the NIH’s last in-house beagle lab. 2,133 beagles were killed in septic shock tests — and stuffed inside a refrigerator.
- WCW stopped taxpayer-funded beagle tests in China, too. We cut a government contract that abused and killed 300 beagles… every single week. This NIH-Pentagon payout specifically targeted 8-month-old dogs who were “docile” and “cute.” That funding is now gone.
- WCW shut down a $10 million Pentagon cat lab. Cats were electroshocked and had marbles rammed up their rectums. We exposed it —and closed it.
- WCW abolished dog and cat testing at the U.S. Navy — for good. It’s the first-ever federal BAN on pet experimentation in American history.
- WCW stopped government primate experiments. Veterans Affairs and CDC monkey labs are being closed.
- WCW shut down the EPA’s in-house lab. 20,000 animals were being killed each year. Now? Animals are being retired and released.
But these wins only happened because you stepped up to an email appeal like this.
Taxpayer, will you step up again?

I founded WCW on my own dime, out of my own pocket.
But Taxpayer, this year has also been devastating:
- Fundraising is down 47% — our lowest in four years
- Our largest funding source has dropped off
- We may have to cut rescue support by up to 80%
- We have not covered our 2025 budget
TONIGHT is the year’s most important deadline. 320 dogs are at risk. The books close at 11:59 pm.
We’re stretched to the limit.
Taxpayer, below please find your secure links to triple (or even tenfold match) your tax-deductible gift.
Thanks for reading. And thanks for helping animals in labs.
