and always being the test dummies. Animal testing is unnecessary because the animals have no choice or will of theirs own‚ the longtime effect taken on the animals‚ and it is inhumane. Animal testing is barbarous because the animals have no choice in the matter and no voice to say what they want or when they are feeling pain. Animals don’t show emotions like humans do and they also‚ cannot say when it hurt or when they feel uncomfortable. Even if the animal does pull away or show signs of illness

Animal testing is the experimentation of products or medicine on animals. Sometimes it works‚ and the experiment does not harm the animal‚ but when it fails what happens? The animals get severe injuries and some extreme products can even lead to death. Animal testing has been going on for a long time and it is believed that it started in the 2nd and 4th centuries BC. So‚ should it stop now? Should animal testing be illegal? Global Perspectives In the UK‚ scientists were warned by the research agencies

Should animal testing be outlawed? “Is there a moral basis to distinguish experiments on other species and experiments on humans”? (Wright‚ 1) Animals such as Rabbits‚ Monkeys‚ and Dogs are killed each year for a humans well being. Many people support and disapprove of this practice and it has caused worldwide attention. Monkeys and other primates share 96% of the human gene sequence which makes them suitable test subjects. (Wright‚ 3). Each year millions of animals are killed and abused for

Animal Testing Cancer is a terrible disease‚ 12.7 million people are diagnosed with cancer each year and over 7.6 million die from the disease. Cancer is currently being studied and a cure has not been found‚ wouldn’t it be nice if we were to speed up the process of finding a cure? With animal testing this can be done quicker than by studying on other things that are “humane”. Many people believe that animal testing is wrong and should be stopped but at the same time more and more people are dying

Animals are used to develop medical treatments‚ determine the toxicity of medications‚ check the safety of products destined for human use‚ and other biomedical‚ commercial‚ and health care uses” (ProCon 1).

Animal testing‚ also known as animal experimentation‚ is the use of animals to view and control variables that affect their behavior and biology system. It has played a major role in biomedical research ever since the last century. Using animals in research that could protect humans from a disease‚ any kind of pain‚ suffering‚ and even death should be justified. One of the many reasons why it is justified is because it has helped medical fields come up with many treatments for diseases. Treatments

the topic of animal testing‚ most of us will readily agree that it is a debatable topic. Where this agreement usually ends‚ however‚ is on the question of whether it helps researchers to find new drugs and treatments suitable for humans. Whereas some are convinced that it does help researchers find new drugs and treatments‚ others maintain that some drugs tested on animals may never actually be useful or even safe for human consumption. In my own view the results of animals testing are unreliable

Replacing Animal Testing: Unrealistic The issue of whether or not animal experimentation should be used for research in medicine and science has been debated for years. After conducting research on both sides of the issue‚ I have found that we should not replace animal testing with alternative methods at the present time. The proposal to replace animal testing in medical science is somewhat unrealistic and would prove to be disadvantageous. There are four substantial reasons for this: animal research

Animal testing is a major debate in today’s society‚ but it is not just a problem of today. Animal testing dates back the 1800’s when Charles Darwin’s evolutionary theory served to suggest that animals could serve as effective models to facilitate biological understanding in humans. Other cases of animal testing include psychological experiments such as the one by Ivan Pavlov in the late nineteenth century. He conducted experiments on dogs to demonstrate how dogs could be conditioned with regards
