Animal activists stormed an animal research facility at the University of Milan in Italy.

The extreme supporters of animal rights released a number of mice and rabbits from their cages, and mixed up cage labels to disturb what experiments were going on.

The workers at the research facility were using the animals to research autism and schizophrenia.

Although no arrests were made - the university says it is considering pressing charges

Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage is a friend to the animals!

Cruelty Free International is an organization that is trying to ban the sale of cosmetics that are tested on animals.

Peter has teamed up with Cruelty Free International to end the sale of animal tested cosmetics in the U.S. of A!

Dinklage said:

While we already know that Ke$ha takes helping animals seriously, we weren't surprised when we learned that she teamed up with the Humane Society of the United States to speak up for animals!

In the clip (above), the pop princess HIGHlights the fact that congress is considering passing bills on animal fighting, egg-laying hens, laboratory chimpanzees and walking horses, so because it's important to help animals stay as safe as they can… the Die Young songstress wants U to do your part.

Ch-ch-check out the video (above) for more deets, and CLICK HERE to make 2013 the year of the animal!!!

Well this doesn't make much sense! Terrorism? REALLY?

That is, unless the lawmakers are super into abusing animals. Or being paid off. Those are the only ways we could EVER see this happening — because the collection of wide-reaching laws will effectively make it impossible to collect evidence of animal abuse from here on out!

We're talking about cutting off whistleblowers with good hearts or even videographers working with the Humane Society when their evidence usually ends with prosecutions, fines, and even reform among producers! Which is a GREAT thing! Those poor animals!

With the new bills, deemed "Ag-Gag," the people who collect the evidence must turn it into authorities as soon as it's collected, instead of being able to accumulate any detailed or significant body of evidence. Which normally would lead to better results against the offenders!

The Grand National Horse Race is upon us.

The annual event takes places in Liverpool, England and is a tradition that started over fifty years ago!

500 to 600 million people tune in from all over the world, but one person who won't be watching and is emphatically NOT a fan is Leona Lewis.

Here's what the noted animal activist tweeted:

It is no coincidence that the Disney Worldwide Conservation Fund was created on the same day as Earth Day - April 22nd.

Since then, the corporation has generously donated $20 million towards programs that support animals.

That's a lot of bread! We know those animals appreciate it!

To celebrate their own anniversary, the Disney corporation is producing a series of videos called Stories From The Field.

In these videos, Disney fans will learn about endangered species from representatives from Disney!

The first video is very magical indeed!

Ch-ch-check it out by watching it (above) !!!

After one man threatened legal action over a cat's residence at Massachusetts' Swansea Public Library -over two THOUSAND people signed a petition to keep the kitty there.

The outpour of support has prompted the man to drop the lawsuit as long as there are signs that warn people there is a cat on the premise.

Here's what the cat hater said:

“The cat has gone all over the world. You’ve got the petition with over 2,000 people over a freaking cat. We’ve got pictures of the cat on Facebook laying on top of a laptop and they think this is ok. I just don’t understand it."

That may be, but people love cats.

Us included!

So if you're allergic, take some Claritin, but don't make the cat leave the library!

Where is it gonna go???
