EXTERNAL STUDY This is a summary of an external study
There is an unprecedented demand for goose eggs within the U.K., and several large suppliers are struggling to keep up with demand.

Demand for goose eggs is on the rise in the United Kingdom, and at least one of the region’s largest suppliers is struggling to keep up with this growth.

Major producer of goose eggs, Norfolk Geese in the United Kingdom, notes unprecedented demand for goose eggs at the retail and consumer level. Historically, goose eggs were purchased primarily for decorating, but consumers are now including them in their diet.

UK Funders Demand Strong Statistics for Animal Studies

In animal experimentation, the replacement of animals wherever possible, reduction of the number of animals tested on, and refinement of experiments to use fewer animals is known as the "3 Rs." This guideline is supposed to govern a great deal of animal experimentation around the world, yet many millions of animals are still used in laboratories every year. In the U.K., a research council has presented 2015 guidelines instructing that "funding applicants must now show that their work will provide statistically robust results or risk having their grant application rejected." This may mean that researchers have to use more animals in experiments or they risk having their funding cut.
