The question of whether or not to prohibit doing experiments on animals has been a controversial issue for many years. Animal experiment is the use of non-human animals in experiments in order to the advance of medicine and science. Although animal experiments are benefit to human being, it is clear that these experiments have many disadvantages, and that researchers should not continue to use animal tests for the following three reasons. The first and most important reason to be against animal experiments is that this kind of poor scientific practice is cruel and inhuman. Such as Beckoff and Meaney (1998) said “animal pain and distress". By that they mean that animals also feel pain as human beings do, and they suffer a great pain when being tested. As well as this animals are executed after being used in an experiment, even though there are some survivors in a minority of cases. Moreover, lots of animals lose freedom and become unhealthy before they are tested. According to a research from BUAV, there are more than 100 million animals which from a wide range of species are used in experiments annually. In addition, some of them get diseases because of the bad attendance before being tested. A second reason to support prohibiting animal experimentations is that it is dangerous for both researchers and customers. People might be infected with bacterium during experiments. Such as a kind of famous inflection called brucella. If researchers do not protect themselves well, they will get disease and spread it to other people. Moreover, the results obtained from animal testing might not suitable for human beings (Larry, 2004). For example, Thalidomide was a drug that came out of the German market in sixties of the twentieth century. Despite this apparent 'safety testing', tens of thousands of children who's mothers had used this drug were born with severe deformities. The final reason to support
