involved in animal research. Ethical Issues In terms of ethics‚ the main issue in animal testing is simply that many experimental animals suffer in ways which are unnatural to them. Through the use of genetic manipulation‚ obese mice ‚ diabetic mice‚ and mice with Huntington’s disease can be created. Surgical experiments can be performed on larger animals – such as pigs‚ sheep‚ and dogs‚ as “practice” for human surgery. Normally‚ such things would not happen to these animals. Any suffering

why are we treating animals the way we do? Well‚ it’s illegal to give people new medicines that have not been tested yet‚ but it’s not illegal to test them on animals! How many times has it ran through their heads that animals feel pain‚ to make innocent animals like dogs‚ cats‚ mice‚ birds and many more suffer for no reason other than to conduct cruel experiments on them. Animal testing is only another version of animal cruelty which is very illegal! People might think that animal testing is fine because

sometime? Animals are as important as humans and then how can we see animals extinct. Mahatma Gandhi (1956) had a quote which was”The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way animals are treated”. There are several animals who are on the line of becoming extinct. Animals that are on the line of extinction are called Endangered Animals. If the current Endangered animals became extinct then many resources that people use will also disappear. We should save Endan

Should animals be treated with dignity? Animal cruelty is a serious problem that still takes place around the world‚ although some issues are clear‚ certain acts of animal cruelty remain disguised under the name of art and entertainment. Bullfighting is the most obvious example. To be honest it is extremely disturbing that such cruelty is still carried out in modern society. Animals should be treated as companions‚ but this so called ‘sport’ is an abuse to animals in perhaps every possible way

“Scientists experiment on animals for a host of different reasons‚ including basic research to explore how organisms function‚ investigating potential treatments for human disease‚ and safety and quality control testing of drugs‚ devices and other products. Its proponents point to the long list of medical advances made possible with the help of animal research” (Katsnelson). I believe that this first argument is the strongest because it offers several reasons on why scientists do animal experiments. Along

Shandy Mae Yap 3/6 Should animals be kept in Zoos? I believe that animals should be allowed to enjoy their own natural habitat and live with their family freely‚ not trapped behind bars and cages. So no‚ I do not agree that animals should be kept in zoos. Most people go to the zoo purely for entertainment and I strongly believe that animals were not created for that purpose only. We shouldn’t put animals lower than us. Zoos claim to educate people and preserve species‚ but

Reasons Why Animal Testing Should be Banned The activity of animal testing is of cruelty and sometimes unscientific. Money spent on animal experimentation is wasted in many cases; due to inability in obtaining accurate results‚ and all this at the cost of the animals’ well-being. Here are a few arguments against animal testing that support the thought of banning this activity. Cruel Practices Animals are a soft target for human beings; it is however‚ not fair to take undue advantage of their

first one to an aspirin? Who is the first one to use brand new shampoos? Do you know the lucky ones of whom I speak? I’m referring to animals - cats‚ rabbits‚ rats‚ dogs‚ monkeys and so many other animals are cruelly used in various kinds of scientific research and millions of them die every year. Is not every life created by God equal? Experimentation on animals serves as a protective alternative to testing on human beings. Since all these new products are being “tested” it seems unlikely and unethical

Animals should be treated just like a human. Humans would not want to be tested on‚ therefore‚ humans should not perform these harsh tests on animals. The animals do not deserve to be thrown away‚ such as one would do with a used tissue. Before one looks at buying makeup‚ they should think of what brutal tests the animal had to endure for that small tube of lipstick just to be applied to their lips. Animal testing should not even be legal because if we can have them as pets then we should treat them

Over 100 million animals are killed in lab use for experiments in the United States‚ and also biology lessons‚ most of the animals are treated with drugs‚ chemicals‚ and also viruses. Scientist are always experimenting with animals and are treating the animals inhumanely. The animals are not like humans so their pain levels are a lot different from men and women pain levels. Animals including rabbits‚ mice‚ monkeys‚ cats‚ dogs and more animals get implants‚ diseases‚ and painful procedures and most
