Animal Testing Is Unnecessary

It is unnecessary to allow the experimentations of medicines and vaccines on rats, dogs, or even larger animals. The hope is to one day eliminate animals studies entirely in pharmaceutical testing while greatly improving the efficiency or drug research. If you think animal testing is okay in any way shape or form, imagine you as a dog, rat, or any other animal getting tested on and harmed or even killed by the product that was tested on you? You would not want or like that one but. So why are we making actual animals suffer? Because we just need them? Because they are our only source of testing? There are many different ways of testing that do not involve animals. For example, scientists have tried to discover many ways of how they can use
If scientists can find a way that works and is useful then animals are free of being tested on and no more animals will have to be harmed and better yet no more animals will die from being tested on. Many animals around this world are the victims of animal abuse, but is it necessary to examine why everyone should understand that animals should have there own rights. Live animals have played a long fundamental role in this world of being used for experiments, when will it come to an end? Let’s find out. New and emerging techniques offer opportunities to obtain reliable scientific data faster, less expensively, and more humanly. These techniques can reduce significantly our dependence on tests with live animals, so then we do not have to 1) Hunt and capture animals, and 2) we do not have to worry about harming or killing the poor innocent animals. A number of non-animal tests have been devised to replace live animal use with the Draize test for eye irritancy. In 1988, it was estimated that the cost of the vitro tests averaged about 50$ per product, compared to using animals it
“One of the most important jobs the Cruelty Free International science team does is encourage regulators to accept and promote alternative methods to animal testing. Almost every type of human and animal cell can be grown in the laboratory.” Scientists have even managed to coax cells to grow into 3D structures, such as miniature human organs, which can provide a more realistic way to test new therapies. Human tissue can be donated from surgery (e.g. biopsies, cosmetic surgery and transplants). For example, skin and eye models made from reconstituted human skin and other tissues have been developed and are used to replace the cruel rabbit irritation tests. “Companies such as Episkin, Mattek and CellSystems GmbH now produce these tests in easy to use kits for companies to use to test their cosmetics and other substances.” Less high-tech studies for nutrition, drug addiction and pain can also be carried out on consenting humans in the interest of advancing medical science. These studies can help replace animal tests. We are told that insulin therapy would not have been discovered unless animal researchers had removed the pancreas from dogs in the 1920s. But like other areas of medical research, the important clues actually came much earlier from observations of human patients. Running experiments on animals may be less morally ambiguous than releasing
