Animal Testing Should Be Allowed

Ap Lang and Composition
Mr. Arena When the topics are being brought up of animals being used in experiments or in laboratory researches, many folks disapprove of it. Despite of peoples opinion, the experiments or laboratory research towards animals should be supported and allowed. To cure people in any kind problems or disease they always experiment on animals first. Which is the best thing to do, to save many life’s. Many people say animals have the same feeling as humans, as in they have the capacity for seeing, hearing, believing, remembering, and anticipating and experiencing pleasure and pain. Though it has been proven that animals and humans don’t think alike and are not on the same scale. The truth is that when you have pets you eventually fall attach to them and you treat them as your own. So mostly people that disagree with the idea of animals being experimented. The reason is because they have pets of there own and they feel sorry if there pet was basically meant as a toy which is being played around but for a good cause. Or they would feel sorry if there pet was put in the same spot as animals being experimented. Though if this ever occurred, no one will ever give up there family members for experiments

Which can be bad for us because the stuff they experiment with animals basically determine what ever has passed with the experiment on them can be use sufficiently with us to help and cure disease or any problems. When people see the chart of animals being used in research in UK is mostly mice that are being more experimented. Which them experimenting with mice shouldn’t be that much of a different that people should be opposed to it. Yes people use other type of animals in research but not all of them have a significance in our daily life’s. They test those animals for are good health and new

    Animal testing, is also known as animal experiments in the act of using non-human animals in research, to develop projects or scientific experiments. Statistics show that each year, there are millions of animals such as cats, dogs, mice, rats, ferret, hamsters and monkeys that experience mental and physical torture due to scientific research. Although most people agree that animal testing is horrible and cruel, there are few who this is it necessary to find new medicines. During the experiments, the animals are forced to inhale or sallow large amounts of test substances. Which are often found to be poisonous and toxic. The largest concern, is that animals are being used in experiments and not humans. Meaning that the results might or might not be useful for all the humans. Million of animals are suffering from poor conditions of living, and then to…

    Do you want to see animals abused and killed sometimes for nothing? Animal testing is flawed and can produce very unreliable results. Around 26 million animals are used every year for scientific and commercial testing. These animals are used to determine the toxicity and effectiveness of medications before they test it on humans. Therefore animal testing should be banned.…

    Though animal testing should be banned from ever being practiced or used again, people still view it as a necessity despite all of the evidence against it. Animal testing requires inhumane, unsanitary, unsafe, or cruel conditions that if done to humans would be outlawed since they either reduce the quality of life or cause disease or death. Seeing that animals are living, breathing creatures that want to survive just as much as people do, assuming that test conditions are not good for human kind, then they are not good for any living creatures. Furthermore, they are inherently wrong by nature. Tolerating animal cruelty promotes the same insensitivity that allows cruelty to people, such as serial killers and the early incidents of animal torture.…

    Animals used in biomedical research help us understand how our bodies work. Through this practice we have been able to literally cure disease, find new therapy for illness, ensure the safety of medicine, and evaluate medical procedures before they are ever used on humans. The fact of the matter is that without animal experimentation many of us would not be alive today, and neither would our pets… “Without animal research, millions of dogs, cats, birds, and farm animals would be dead from more than 200 diseases, including anthrax, distemper, rabies, feline leukemia, and canine parvo virus.” (California Veterinary Medical Association).…

    `”God loved the birds and invented trees. Man loved the birds and invented cages” (Deval, Jacques). There are many things wrong about animal research, and I think that a lot of it is wrong. Animal testing is wrong because it harms animals, animals’ rights are violated in tests, it is expensive, there are better alternatives, and the results of these tests aren’t always accurate or reliable.…

    Many people also think that animal research is an amazing practice. They might argue with counter arguments like, If humans never used animal for testing we wouldn't have cured many illnesses that had a devastating affect on humans. Many medical breakthrough would have never happened, like when scientist found a cure for polio. If scientist saved so many lives, why would people want to stop animal testing? It heartless that some people do not want to test on animals, do they want people to die? Scientist can go through many more amazing breakthroughs with the help of animals. The medical and scientific field can advance so much more with the help of couple animals. There are about 5 billion rats, so why does it matter that people use a couple? Yes, there have been medical breakthroughs with the help of animals, but that doesn't mean it will always be okay to do. Like stated before, 90% of experiments are a total fail! Why should animals die when scientist accomplish nothing? That means that scientist are just being ignorant, and they do not want to say that they have failed on a project. Poor animals are dying because these type of people do not stop after killing some animals, they keep on killing. Maybe animals are needed for some project, but not all for others. For example animals are not needed for cosmetics and other companies like that. For example, LUSH Cosmetics has over 900 stores! In all those 900 stores…

    Animal Testing Ethics

    There are several factors that influence an individual's opinion on animal testing. Sarah Knight and Louise Barnett, authors of " Justifying attitudes toward animal use: a qualitative study of people's views and beliefs" introduce a factor that applies to me, which is experiences with pets. Personally, as a animal lover, I have experienced a bond between me and my animal that I can truly say has influenced my life significantly. In my opinion, animals are so much better than humans, in so many ways. When you build a relationship with a animal, they can become your motivation in life. From my experience with my dog, Lox, he was my motivation for everything. At first, when we got him I didn’t think nothing of him and I didn’t want to be bothered with him. He was just another responsibility that I had to cater too. I soon began to fall in love with him. He brought so much happiness into my life especially when he would run to me after I came home for school. My dog was the only reason I liked being home because he was the only one who I could cry in front of. I'm not an emotional person but after a hard day at school, he was my happy place. He's gone now but when I look at any other animal, I could only imagine my dog. I couldn't imagine him going through the things that other animals go through because that bond that we have built was everlasting and still is. You would expect people to have a…

    Animals should NOT be used for testing in labs. There are many reasons why this dilemma should stop. They have different bodies than humans so the tests may react different on them than on humans and that could lead to danger to people. I think if scientists have to lab test on something living then they should pick something overpopulated, but that still is not okay, therefore something needs to be figured out. Or instead of using helpless animals, they should use all natural products and take human volunteers willing to get tested on. Why risk poor helpless little animal’s lives? Why torture them? It is proven that animals are not the best test subjects to use.…

    Animal testing for biomedical research has been going on for centuries for example Aristotle; who was an early greek physician, also tested on animals to expand the knowledge of living organism’s anatomy. During the mid to late nineteenth century companies grew rapidly thus requiring more animals and more test to be applied on the subjects for their research or cosmetic use. Since the accelerated amount of animal testing grew, various different types of associations were created to hinder or to lowly regulate the usage of living organism and shared records to the public to gain more supporters. Throughout the research of various subjects, the testers treated the subjects inhumanely thus the animal’s treatment was publicized to the mass/community which spawn a burst of fury of anger towards animal testing. The surge of animal testing abuse led to the…

    I support animal experimentation for the fact that scientists who are trying to find cures and treatments have to experiment on something rather than on humans. Animal experimentation serves to our benefit and without it our advancements in medicine and in treatments would not have been possible. Let’s inform ourselves that the result of these experiments can turn out to our benefit. Not only does it help us as humanity but it also helps us find…

    • 508 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Animal experimentation, animal research and animal practice all generally mean the same thing. One may be more familiar with the term animal testing. Animal testing has been a controversial topic between supporters and the adversary for quite some time, but animal testing is wrong, even if it helps find cures for illnesses. Between all the strong public opinions, hefty fines and likelihood of the tested drugs working on humans, it is best if animal testing comes to an end. Animal testing came to scientists back in 500 BC by Greeks. It has always been such a controversial topic, because of the harm that comes to the animals. Proponents to animal testing say that animal research is beneficial. They say that numerous life-saving treatments…
