Early on‚ the elimination of animal testing was unfeasible because it was the only available source. However‚ technology advancements in the late 20th and early 21st centuries have introduced alternative methods that are often cheaper and more relevant to humans. William Russell and Rex Burch first introduced the 3R’s of animal research in 1959. These R’s stand for the reduction‚ refinement‚ and replacement of the use of animals in research and testing. Many alternative methods that have come forward

The Animal Welfare Act was first first passed in 1876 in Britain and titled “the Cruelty to Animals Act of 1876”. It was created to approve all animals used in research.

Humans are animals‚ but they are very different than any other animals. Many things can prove us that humans are one of a kind‚ like their intelligence for example. Even though humans and animals have many activities in common (sleeping‚ eating‚ mating‚ and defending)‚ human beings have a fifth faculty: the intelligence to inquire into the truth of our existence (Butler and Guru).

I think human testing is good because of these reasons. Without human testing we most likely wouldn’t be here today. Testing on animals isn’t always accurate. Doctors wouldn’t know if the newest vaccine will work on a human being if they just tested it on animals. Even if we test it on our closest genetic ancestors (i.e. Apes)‚ we wouldn’t be sure if the medicine works on humans. Apes are underdeveloped and live in the wild‚ so they’re able to withstand the obstacles the environment throws at
