20 million animals are used every year for scientific and monetary studies. These tests are used to produce medical cures, and to check the safety of different medications. The question is, should we keep testing animals for scientific research? People have different thoughts or opinions on animals; many think of animals as their playfellows, while others visual animals on an account of advancing and furthering medical research. The logic remains that animals are being utilized by animal facilities
treatments for them, unfortunately, is to test them on animals. Animal research and testing is necessary to develop new medicines, treatments, and therapies for millions of diseases and illnesses. Even though some people argument that it is not necessary, without animal testing thousands of millions of people would now be dead. Thanks to animal research we know about the effects of certain medicines in the human body, thanks to animal testing we have discovered the cure for diseases that killed people
Animal testing is the testing or experimentation of products, chemicals, and more on animals. Sometimes animals are used to test beauty products on, as well as new medicines and scientific researches. The animals most commonly used are mice, rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and even cats. However, these are not the only animals used in these acts of cruelty, others such as fish, farm animals, dogs, birds, and in some cases monkeys or chimpanzees. Animal testing is cruel and immoral, not to mention
constantly to benefit us, but cause their lives to become worse? Locked in tiny cages these animals are denied the ability to roam free in an effort to solve health issues of the human race. Every year over 100 million of the animals experimented on die in the laboratories due to this experimentation that supposedly helps to find cures for humans. These cures scientists are finding aren’t even aimed to help animals, and they live horrible lives as a result of these confining living spaces in addition
located that are designated for experimenting on animals for scientific benefit. There are a variety of mixed feelings on the matter. Some think its cruel and unjust, while others believe its mandatory to be able to obtain useful data. Animal experimentation needs to be stopped because it is harmful to animals and it is non-beneficial to the health of humans. Animal testing and experiments have proven to be very harmful to the health of animals and cause excruciating amounts of pain to be afflicted
Animal testing, or animal research, is the use of animals in scientific tests to determine the safety of substances for humans. It is estimated that about 100,000- 200,000 animals are mutilated and/ or slaughtered for cosmetic, drug, food, and chemical testing. “Over 100 million animals are burned, crippled, poisoned, and abused in US labs every year.” Although this fact is dispiriting when you really think about it, there is a plethora of animal testing benefits. For instance, without animal research
“No matter whether it’s someone from the political left or right, we just need a voice to stand up and defend animal rights” a quote from Brigitte Bardot on animal experimentation. Animal experimentation has been going on for over 300 years and this is just what has been recorded in records. There are many types of test performed on animals:Draize Test: A laboratory test in which a cosmetic or drug is dropped into a rabbit 's eyes, which are held open with clips, to determine the level of irritation
Over thousands of animals become extinct. The only thing that people do not know is that testing is the reason they are getting extinct. Some people say that animal testing is good and it does not do any harm. Some say we should continue testing on animals to find cures. Testing on animals kill them or torture them to do the testing. In order to test cures they will need to infect the animal with it and it could possibly kill them (PETA). Animals get harmed or killed when tested on. When getting
cures because of animal testing. Animal testing has dated back several years and used throughout our history. Many famous physician scientists such as Aristotle, Erasistratus, Galen, Ibn Zuhr, and many more have used this method of experimentation to find advancements in medicine. However, as time progresses animal testing has been put under criticism and some question the methods used. Isn’t animal testing however, made for the greater good? The main purpose for testing on animals is so that we can
cosmetics testing” (“Experiments on Animals”). Scientists and biologists depend on animal testing for the sake of discovering new cures and treatments. What they uncover is transferred and used for treatments to save humans and animals, but the process along the way is grueling for the animals that are poked and prodded. “US Department of Agriculture (USDA) reported in 2016 that 71,370 animals suffered pain during experiments while being given no anesthesia for relief” (“Animal Testing”). Animals should
