Every year‚ millions of animals suffer through painful and unnecessary tests. Animals in laboratories all over the world live lives of deprivation‚ pain‚ isolation‚ and torture.

Going beyond the issue of animal experimentation being morally wrong‚ this form

Animal experimenting is a national system of sadistic torture‚ vivisection‚ and genocide‚ which has been carried out for generations under the disguise of “medical research” and definitely must be stopped.

ANIMAL EXPERIMENTATION There has been a controversy between animal rights supporters and scientists about whether it is right to use animals in experimental research. Also‚ it is very debatable whether using animals for such research results in finding a cure for diseases. From my point of view‚ if there are no other alternatives‚ and if it is possible that this will contribute to science‚ animals may be used for experimental research. Although the animal rights activists claim that people and

Animal Experimentation has Alternatives Every day around the world‚ animals are fighting for their lives. They are being mutilated and confined to tiny cages so we can use them. They are being burned‚ blinded‚ poisoned‚ and cut up alive just for science. They are electrocuted and strangled just so people can wear makeup. The fact that animal testing can be done in other ways makes this suffering pointless. Scientists should use alternative testing instead of harming animals. Animals are abused
