Topic: Animal Testing
General Purpose: To Inform
Specific Purpose: To inform my classmates about Animal Testing
Central Idea: I want to share with my audience that animal testing has it effects and defects.
Introduction: Attention-Getter: Credibility Material: I have seen many pictures taken in laboratories where animals look like they’re in pain; they have scars, broken legs or arms, rashes, infected eyes, and even scared faces. Relevance: we all have used cream, shampoo or perfume, in our life; but how do we know that these products won’t hurt us? Well all products are tested on animals. Preview of Speech: Animal Testing has existed for over 60 years, but yet we have cancer without a cure and other illnesses that still need work. To understand the effects and defects of Animal Testing, I will answer the following questions: what is the problem with animal testing? and how important is animal testing?
(Link: first, what is the problem with Animal Testing?)
Body:
I. Animal Testing cost the U.S over $30 billion in 2012. A) U.S Food and Drug administration stated “Currently, nine out of ten experimental drugs fail in clinical studies because we cannot accurately predict how they will behave in people based on laboratory and animal studies.” B) Scientists have found cures for cancer in rats, guinea pigs, birds, etc, but can’t seem to work on humans. Director of the US National Institutes of Health, Dr Elias Zerhouni claims that "We have moved away from studying human disease in humans," C) Every year, more than 100 million animals are killed in labs for biological testing, and before death some are forced to inhale
