Science groups are wanting a more open approach when it comes to involving animals in their science research after many years of feeling reluctant to do so. 

First off, Zazi talks to Animal Welfare Officer and University Veterinarian at the University of Auckland, Dr. Jodi Salinsky, about the Openness Agreement on Animal Research and Teaching in New Zealand. She speaks on why she thinks it is important to be transparent about animal research and if we will ever move away from animal testing altogether.

Zazi then briefly chats to the Executive Director of the New Zealand Anti-Vivisection Society (NZAVS), Tara Jackson, about her thoughts on the Openness agreement and whether she agrees with Dr. Salinsky's view that the agreement is a step in right direction for animal research.
