Animals Should Not Be Used in Scientific Research
Who is the first one in drinking a new type of coke or PepsiCo? Who is the first one in taking a tablet of aspirin? Who is the first one in using shampoos? Did you know all these things? The one I’m referring to is the animal—cat, rabbit, rat and so on which are widely and cruelly used in various kinds of scientific researches, and millions of them die every year. Every life created by god is equal. Bearing that in mind, a huge amount of people have been no-animal-testing users. They strongly propose that animals shall not be used in scientific researches.
Experiment animals are protective walls of human beings’ health. They are routinely cut open, poisoned and then caged in for weeks, months or even years. Some animals are often given diseases to see whether a new drug will work or whether it has side effects. Some animals are killed by researchers in order to see the degree of damage inside their bodies. And we can often see that baby cats or rabbits being separated from their mothers on TV too. This is not moral. Things can be made clearer by turning it round. If there is a day when all these animals become masters of this planet, and we human beings become “slaves”—the scientific research targets. What would we think about? It is reported that there are 3million animals die annually in scientific researches in UK. The number is about 115 million in America. Statistics show that an animal dies for scientific researches every three seconds. However, the exact number of animals killed in the researches every year is unknown, for researchers or governments never care about these dead, not to mention counting the numbers.
But why don’t governments do something about this? The answer is simple: money. From animal breeders to companies, from companies to researchers, from researchers to governments, from governments to companies, animals used in experiment have already become an industry wearing a shining golden coat. Each player benefits a lot. And every single
