Seeing exotic animals behind cages or glass walls at the zoo‚ watching Shamu do flips for a fish at SeaWorld‚ and laughing as elephants perform tricks at the circus are all entertaining‚ but is our entertainment worth the suffering these animals endure behind the scenes? The answer is no. The billions of animals that are subjected to abuse outweigh any claimed benefits that can be made of these businesses. The debate of zoos and parks being ethical or unethical has two main arguments‚ these being

Imagine this‚ you are a cute little beagle puppy‚ locked in a cage inside of a research lab. The scientists who have you locked in that cage are trying to find cures for certain diseases and illnesses. They would take you out of your cage and take some blood samples‚ and then they inject you with a sedative so they can start their experiments. Some of the experiments may cause you to die‚ or get sick. But one thing is for certain‚ you will never be the puppy that gets to live with a nice family‚

Experimentation on animals was meant to provide innovative advancements to the development of drugs and safety of products. However‚ the use of animals in laboratory tests no longer fulfills its original purpose. While it is difficult to deny the medical advances that have been made possible due to animal testing‚ there are alternatives that are more cost-effective‚ reliable‚ and do not contribute toward the suffering of animals. Methods such as microdosing‚ in-vitro models‚ and in-silica computer

Animal welfare should be a top priority for each and every farm. Animal welfare means how an animal is coping with the conditions in which it lives. An animal is in a good state of welfare if it is healthy‚ comfortable‚ well nourished‚ safe‚ able to express innate behavior‚ and if it is not suffering from unpleasant states such as pain‚ fear‚ and distress (Animal Welfare: What is it).

It is the process of using animals with similar DNA‚ such as chimpanzees‚ to test new cosmetic and medical products to try and figure out how they will work on humans. It is a very controversial subject . Some people argue animal testing provides valuable information for people and new products; Animal testing needs to be stopped because it

Speaking about human beings‚ Bradley (XXXX‚ xxx-xxx) has criticised the idea that death is less bad for babies and gets worse as one ages. Bradley advocates for measuring the amount of good lost in a way that accounts for the whole life of the victim‚ disregarding psychological connectedness. Hence‚ given a similar amount

This topic is commonly argued because it mostly involves animal rights and the research to possibly better the future for human beings.

Animal testing is the scientific use of animals in research to find cures for diseases. The experiments may require killing the animal to find research. Those who agree with animal testing argue that it is useful since it allows scientists to find medicines and cures. On the other hand‚ others argue that animals are being mistreated in the process. I think animal testing should be banned since it is cruel‚ other alternatives can be used in place‚ the body systems of humans and animals differ‚ and
