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

Animal testing is one of the few animal cruelty’s in the US‚ testing is in the laboratories for human products such as makeup hair products and many more. “Animal testing originated by the early Greeks physician-scientists‚ such as Aristotle‚ 384 – 322 BC. An Arab physician in twelfth-century Moorish Spain introduced animal testing as an experimental method for testing surgical procedures before applying them to human patients.” (History Of Animal Testing) Every year in America more than 105‚000

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 Rights Animals have been used in medical research for centuries. Most of the animals used for research are rodents such as rats‚ mice‚ hamsters and gerbils. Some dogs‚ cats and a variety of goats‚ ferrets‚ pigeons‚ monkeys and rabbits are also used .The struggle against this tyranny is a struggle as important as any of the moral and social issues that have been fought over in recent years. Animal rights are an emotional issue‚ second only perhaps‚ to the bitter abortion debate. For decades

You could be supporting animal cruelty and not even know it. Today many household products are being tested on animals. Helpless and defenseless animals are being performed on for different types of experiments all around the world. Most of the things being performed in these labs you could never imagine one human being doing to another. I believe that animal testing should be illegal because it is inhumane‚ not very reliable‚ and is proved to be unnecessary. Testing on animals is inhumane. One hundred

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

Animal testing is the right thing to do “Animal testing is a type of research that has been going on for hundreds of years dating back to the ancient Greeks. It is used in many different ways‚ but mainly to prevent harm from being brought upon humans” (Hamblin 1). There have been long controversies between animal rights‚ and pros on animal testing‚ and the issue is growing more and more as our science develop more and better. Those who oppose on animal testing argues‚ that animal treatment

Animal testing has been used a lot throughout the years and now it is time to make a change. Animal testing has caused harm and death to over 100 million innocent animals per year for the sake of human progress. Today there are many alternatives for animal testing that scientist can use in experiments instead of animals. These alternatives are more efficient‚ less expensive‚ and do not cause harm to any living being. Instead of introducing animals to malignant diseases‚ and killing them for research

The use of animal testing has helped aid society in being sure that products are safe for humans to use; whether that be food products‚ cosmetics‚ household cleaners‚ or even pharmaceuticals.

of medical progress. But these major advances have something in common: they were all developed and tested using animals. Animal experimentation is a contentious issue‚ but it boils down to two essential questions: does it work‚ and is it ethical? The first is easy to answer: it works. Some would have you believe there are alternatives for all animal research‚ or that animal testing is always misleading and unsafe. These are fallacies. Where there are reliable alternatives‚ of course‚ we
