Animal testing has been the basis of all medicine and disease breakthroughs for over 50 years. Some people believe animal testing is a necessary and useful way to test and discover new products‚ but I believe it is not. Millions of animals are dying or being injured just so scientists can experiment to find new substances and products for humans to use‚ which does not justify for the many lives being lost. Some experiments done on the animals include measuring eye tissue damage‚ the level of skin

In the early nineteenth century‚ animal experiments emerged as an important method of science and marked the birth of experimental physiology and neuroscience as we know it today. It has since become an issue of intense public controversy. Many individuals against animal experimentation claim that animals undoubtedly merit the same amount of consideration and respect as humans and should be treated on the basis of the principles of equality. However‚ there is significant evidence to suggest that

Is Necessary Medical Testing on Animals? Alex Epstein and Yaron Brook’s “The Evil Right of Animals” first appeared in May 19‚ 2001. In this essay Epstein and Brook aim to convince their readers that medical testing on animals is necessary. “Scientist are close than ever to finding cures for AIDS‚ cancer‚ and other deadly illness. But more research and testing are needed and much of it must be done on animals.” (Epstein and Brook qtd.). Pathos‚ specific evidence‚ and logical thoughts are techniques

from that‚ animal testing also has poor results in both drug testing experiment or medical research. This is because the anatomic‚ metabolic and cellular differences of animal and human are very much different from each other which makes them as poor test subject for human beings. Consequently‚ these absurd experimentation are unable to generate and predict accurate result that may occur in human beings. For instance‚ cancer has an abysmal record of failures where both humans and animals react differently

Animal Testing and Medical Advancement Every day‚ animals such as rabbits‚ chimpanzees‚ and mice take part of medical experimentation. “Chimpanzees share 99% of their DNA with humans‚ and mice are 98% genetically similar to humans. The United States and Gabon are the only two countries that allow experimentation on chimpanzees.” (The Jane Goodall Institute of Canada). What people don’t understand is that these animals contribute to medical discoveries regarding human health. Animals should be used

Even if the cat lives through the process‚ they will have to kill it to see which organs were affected by the toxic chemicals. If this
