Animals Should be Used for Medical Research Will you kill animals in order to save the human beings? Nowadays, the issue of whether animals should be used for medical research or not causes a heated debate. Some people think using animals for medical research is positive, while many others think killing animals is unacceptable. I am in favor of the former. Animals should be used for medical purposes.

may not die. Finally and most importantly, animals should be used for medical research if it can save people’s life. Animals are the only resources for scientist to do medical research, because animals’ body system just like human beings in some ways.
First of all, we cannot use alive or dead people for medical research. It is totally immoral and unacceptable. It is ridiculous to do some research on an individual. Moreover, animals have basically the same body system as we have. We can use animals to text the results of a particular new medicine. Also, using animals is the only way to do medical research; at least currently it is impossible to try a new medicine, which is going to be use on a human being, on plants or rocks. In conclusion, we have to use animals for medical research because there is no other alternative. There is a huge number of animals on earth. It does not make a difference if we sacrifice some of them to do important medical researches. First of all, most scientists use white mouse to do medical research. As we all know, in some ways, mouse is nota good type of animals. Secondly, animals might not die in medical research. There is a large percentage of animals who can survive. Bases on animals we typically use and the death rate of animals in research, I would conclude that it makes tiny difference to use animals to do medical
researches. Most importantly, animals should definitely be used for medical research if it can save people. First of all, medical research is a significant way to develop our medical technology. By observing animal reaction after they take a new kind of medicine, we can learn if the medicine can cure people who are suffering from a bad disease. Furthermore, if the medicine works on animals, we can use it on human beings, and it may save a considerable number of patients who have the same disease. It is totally worth using animals to save people’s life. In conclusion, animals should be used for medical research if it can save people. Animals should be taken to the lab and used for research, because they are the only resource to use. Using them for research makes almost no difference to people’s regular life, and it may save people’s life. Finally, if your relative is suffering from a serious disease and using animals for medical research may save his or her life, would you reject to use animals for medical research?
