There have been long controversies between animal rights‚ and pros on animal testing‚ and the issue is growing more and more as our science develop more and better. Those who oppose on animal testing argues‚ that animal treatment

Animal Testing and Medical Advancement Every day‚ animals such as rabbits‚ chimpanzees‚ and mice take part of medical experimentation. “Chimpanzees share 99% of their DNA with humans‚ and mice are 98% genetically similar to humans. The United States and Gabon are the only two countries that allow experimentation on chimpanzees.” (The Jane Goodall Institute of Canada). What people don’t understand is that these animals contribute to medical discoveries regarding human health. Animals should be used

from that‚ animal testing also has poor results in both drug testing experiment or medical research. This is because the anatomic‚ metabolic and cellular differences of animal and human are very much different from each other which makes them as poor test subject for human beings. Consequently‚ these absurd experimentation are unable to generate and predict accurate result that may occur in human beings. For instance‚ cancer has an abysmal record of failures where both humans and animals react differently

Animal testing has been the basis of all medicine and disease breakthroughs for over 50 years. Some people believe animal testing is a necessary and useful way to test and discover new products‚ but I believe it is not. Millions of animals are dying or being injured just so scientists can experiment to find new substances and products for humans to use‚ which does not justify for the many lives being lost. Some experiments done on the animals include measuring eye tissue damage‚ the level of skin

Animal experimentation is a contentious issue‚ but it boils down to two essential questions: does it work‚ and is it ethical? The first is easy to answer: it works. Some would have you believe there are alternatives for all animal research‚ or that animal testing is always misleading and unsafe. These are fallacies.

Febreze and animals have in common? Over one hundred million animals are burned‚ crippled‚ poisoned‚ and abused in specifically U.S. labs every year. Febreeze is one of the companies that test its products on animals. Imagine cruel scientists forcing caustic chemicals into the eyes of rabbits and applying them on an animal’s shaved and bare skin. Animal testing is cruel and is definitely not necessary. Animal testing is inhumane‚ has inconclusive evidence‚ and has better alternatives. Animal is tested

Scientist would only dissect on animals to find out information on disease‚ what caused it and how could they find a cure for it.
