Throughout history‚ animal experimentation has played an important role in leading to new discoveries and human benefits. However‚ what many people tend to forget are the millions of animals that are tortured or killed during the process of these painful‚ deadly experiments. Many people seem to misunderstand animal nature and the laboratory procedures and techniques that are executed on the animals. The procedures are cruel‚ unreliable‚ and harmful. Luckily there are more humane alternatives that

Biological Basis Genetic modification of an animal involves changing its genetic material by adding‚ modifying or eliminating certain DeoxyriboNucleic Acid or DNA sequences in a way that does not occur naturally. Its main objective is to change particular traits of an animal or present a different trait to prevent infection or boost progression. DNA is the genetic substance of an organism and carries the information for all the traits that an organism receives. Changes made in an animal’s genetic

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

One compelling reason to put a stop to animal testing is it’s unreliable. In fact a drug tested safe on animals was released and turned out to be toxic.Surely if we are relying on animal testing to cure diseases‚ it should be almost 100% accurate so children or adults who end up taking that drug to help them with their illness don’t end up dead.Also animal and human

But even then‚ one such physician stated that he would rather use a pig as his subject because he wanted to‚ “ avoid seeing the unpleasant expression of an ape” (Monamy 9). The ethics of animal testing has always been questioned. Humans do not want to think of animals as on the same level of us. The similarity is terrifying and makes the cruelty

Topic: Animal Experimentation More than 100 million animals are poisoned‚ burned‚ crippled and abused in other ways in U.S labs each year. None of the experiments which are performed are illegal‚ no matter how cruel it is. Even when alternatives besides animals are available‚ the law doesn’t require that they should be used. 92 percent of animals of experimental drugs that are safe and effective in animals fail in human trials because they don’t work or are too dangerous. Most of the animals used

debate whether or not using animals in research is humane. An estimated 26 million animals are used every year in the United States for scientific and commercial testing. [2] Proponents of animal testing state that it has enabled the development of numerous life-saving treatments for both humans and animals‚ while opponents state that animal testing is cruel and often yields irrelevant results because animals are so different from human beings. Many different animals are used in scientific studies
