controversy about using animals in experiments for decades. People converse over different alternatives for animal testing and the inhumane way scientists treat these animals in experiments. This topic causes so much controversy because there are ethical issues to consider such as the treatment of the animals and the reasoning behind testing on these animals if its for a greater cause or not. As of now ‚ I am for animal testing for many beneficial reasons that come out of animal testing. Although in some

Though there is a growing case against animal testing‚ there are those who fully stand behind it. Their arguments defending the concept are most often centered around ethics of testing. For starters‚ the FDA mandates that all drugs go through a series of tests‚ most often on animals‚ before they are allowed to be released to the public for consumption (Ericson‚ 2014‚ a). With these laws in place‚ people claim that animal testing must continue to be accepted so that new drug developments can continue

And this claim might have been true‚ many years ago. In this day in age‚ scientist have developed far more humane research methods to replace animal testing. Human simulators‚ for instance are more accurate than animals. Another argument you can make is that testing an animal is far more humane

million animals are killed in lab for product testing. Now a days‚ scientists are using animals for their research and testings‚ and I disagree with the use of animals. It is unfair to animals because in the end it kills them‚ it may not actually work on humans‚ and the cost of it. I am against the use of animals for product testing for a lot of reasons.

than 100 million animals are killed every year for commercial and scientific testing just in the United States alone! Animal testing is appalling. It is so sad that animals don’t get to live in their natural habitat and have to be pinned up their entire life. So many animals are used for animal testing such as‚ mice‚ rats‚ frogs‚ dogs‚ cats‚ rabbits‚ hamsters‚ guinea pigs‚ monkeys‚ fish‚ and birds. All of these animals have to be crammed in cages for weeks on end. Animal testing should not be allowed

Animal testing is a subject many people agree or disagree with. Animal testing had a great role in saving both humans and animals. It gave many opportunities to have better cures and drugs for medical usage. The cures have saved many lives of people and animals. If animals were not used for testing‚ humans would have been tested‚ and if humans were tested‚ the death rate of humans would increase gradually. Also‚ people developed many animal cures during animal testing‚ so the advantage not only
