Day 3 of the Ridglan Farms Beagle Testing Lab protest brought hundreds of peaceful animal advocates to the Wisconsin State Capitol, where they held a press conference demanding immediate action to address the breeding and use of beagles for research. Speakers outlined concerns about the facility and called on the governor to intervene.
Following the press conference, activists entered the capitol building, filling hallways and gathering outside the governor’s office. The group staged a peaceful sit-in, chanting and requesting a direct meeting. The demonstration comes after earlier confrontations in which protesters allege they were met with excessive force, despite remaining nonviolent.
As hours passed, the governor did not appear and no meeting was granted, leading to a tense standoff. The moment marks a turning point in the escalating campaign, as advocates bring their demands directly to state leadership.
