Animal Testing Should Be Banned

Over one million animals are burned, immobilized, poisoned, and tortured in US labs every year (DoSomething.org). Animal testing is considered a very controversial topic that evolves to protesting rather large companies, and also leads to boycotting a specific brand that is known to test on animals. Animals should not be used for testing products because it is cruel to the animals, there are now new ways to test products, and animals are very different from humans so they are not accurate results.

Animals are now used as objects of experiments to test a variety of products; like shampoo, makeup, and medicines. Animals are almost always used in cancer research but animals never get the human form of cancer which affects the lungs. Animals are not required in animal testing, but people seem to ignore this statement and test on animals anyway. Testing cosmetics on animals is somewhat pointless because animals have different skin and hair than humans have. Animals are not even required in animal testing at all; a makeup company can release an untested product at their own risks. If any product says “cruelty free” on it, it doesn’t necessarily mean that the products inside the product were not tested on. Animals are used to test so many products now-a-days, animals are used to test so many useless

Protesting has been going around the world for many of years. Throughout many years of people boycotted agents a situation they believe, if a wrong or right. One of the biggest areas on where people gather around and protest is when they’re fighting agents animals testing. As well as the years has pasted on protesting on animals, it became more sires in increased in the 1960’s and 1970’s. Many cosmetics companies been testing on animals throughout the years there is also many that have not. The cosmetics line LUSH has been fighting over animals testing for over thirty years and will continue to fight for their right according to the company. When LUSH had first started the company had divided they didn 't ever wanted to test their product on animal. Not only fighting agents animals testing LUSH is also ego friendly; everything they use its plants, oil, and recycle. Since LUSH having to be agents animal testing, policies had created to work with the companies of cosmetics to end the cruelty of animals. The LUSH company say “ This can be done without animal testing …” and it true. LUSH is a company that all there product dills with ones skin to make them fell and look beautiful. If LUSH can test their products other than animals and still make your still looking good then, other cosmetics companies can do the same.

According to “Breakthroughs Might Mean the End of Animal Testing” if a product or chemical is safe for animals, only 8% of those products will work on humans.(John Ericson 1) Animals have been used for testing for thousands of years, due to their similarities with humans. Over the years public support has significantly decreased. The cruel practice has sparked controversy and needs to be stopped. Animal testing is used throughout the U.S which is why it needs to be banned. If animal testing was banned worldwide, it would prevent millions of animal deaths.

”More than 115 million animals worldwide are used in laboratory experiments each year” (About Animal Testing). Animal testing has been used since the BC years, and it is used to understand and compare how things might affect the human body. In 1937, a pharmaceutical company released a drug that was poisonous to humans unknowingly. It ended up poisoning many people, and resulted in several deaths. After this incident, experiments on animals became more important in the medical world (Hajar, Rachel). Animal testing should be illegal, because it is unfair, inhumane, and morally wrong.

Did you know that more than 100 million animals are abused and killed every year in labs all around the world? Animals are used every day to test products and treatments for humans. For years humans have been using animals for testing. These animals are hurt in many different ways, including inhalation of toxic fumes, force-feeding pesticides, and dripping corrosive chemicals into sensitive eyes. Animal testing should be made illegal because animal testing is cruel, there are better ways to test products, and animals’ bodies differ from ours.

Animal testing has been seen as cruel and inhumane for hundreds of years, especially recently with new technology for testing. In the United States, it is legal for animals to be burned, shocked, starved, poisoned,

Less than 2% of human illnesses are ever seen in animals. Over 98% never affect animals. 92% of drugs passed by animal tests fail when first tried on humans because they’re useless, dangerous or both. Humans and animals are very similar to one another. Like humans they have similar systems in the body and at times it tends to react the same a human would. The animals that are used in research are mice, rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, primates, dogs, cats, cows, fish, and birds. Almost all of these animals are used to try to make human life better and to progress in the world of medicine. The remaining animals are used as test dummies for all other products. Hundreds of thousands of animals are experimented on one another to figure out the

Animals testing of many sorts have been used around the world all throughout human existence.

Animal testing has been practiced since the early 1920s. Animal research is used to ensure the safety of a product before it reaches the general public.These products can range from vaccinations, to the soap in your bathroom. Science has evolved drastically since the 1920s and with that evolvement there are now more cost-effective and relevant alternatives to experimentation that no longer call for the suffering of animals, and do not interfere with animal rights.

Animal testing in the scientific and cosmetic fields has been a controversial topic throughout the world for many years. This topic keeps coming back up only to be pushed aside or covered back up by officials. Many people stay outraged and concerned when it comes to animal testing and the fact that it has gone on for so long. The fact of the matter is, that for years now scientist have been studying and developing numerous different methods that can be used for these type of testing’s and completely exclude animals from it all. The next step now is to apply these methods and keep moving forward and progressing with these methods.

When it comes to the topic of preventing and treating diseases in humans, most of us will readily agree that animal testing is a great way to go about testing our products. Where this agreement usually ends, however, is on the question of does animal testing effectively allow humans to move forward in life, allowing us to live a long and healthy life. Whereas some are convinced that animal testing isn’t effective, animals having lived in a completely different environment are more immune to diseases than us. Others even maintain that there are alternatives to animal testing, saying animal testing is not needed. I agree that animal testing is viable, because millions of treatments to diseases have been discovered due to animal testing.

Imagine you being tested on what do you think that feels like ? The total amount of animals used for testing on agriculture experiments is 1.13 million. This is only in the agriculture industry. Now imagine all the other industries that allow animal testing.They’re rights are being violated and there is nothing they can do about it but just take the pain that they don’t deserve. All of this could be stopped but to stop it has to begin somewhere. Animal testing does nothing for humanity but make messes for humans and for animals they take away innocent lives that have done nothing to the human society. Although we do animal testing to ensure a product is safe for us to use, it’s unethical. It’s wrong in any way

The use of animals in research is a widely controversial topic in today?s scientific community and raises an important ethical issue. Do animals make appropriate research subjects and is it absolutely necessary to use animals to test the safety of products? Animal testing can be referred to in a number of ways including animal research and animal experimentation, all of which involve experiments performed on animals to test the safety and effectiveness of things ranging anywhere from cosmetics to medication for humans. Products that commonly use animal testing include drugs, supplements, pesticides, cosmetics, food additives, household products and industrial chemicals. This debate affects many people both directly and indirectly because new medications and products must first pass tests in animals before they can be approved for human use. Although many people argue that these new products should first be tested in animals before ever being administered to a human, I believe that the use of animals to test these products is not necessary and there are many new alternative methods that can be used to determine the success of these products in humans.

Despite the cruelty that is behind animal testing, it's impossible to deny that it has achieved amazing things. Animal tests have saved millions of human lives around the world. They played major roles in the development of antibiotics, organ transplant surgeries, and vaccinations for deadly diseases. These drugs and surgeries are some of the most important medical breakthroughs ever. Virtually all of the medicine we have today wouldn't be possible without being tested on animals. As well as medicine, most cosmetic brands either conduct animal tests themselves or use chemicals they know are safe from previous tests in the past. Everything from makeup to cleaning products all starts of in an animal testing lab. The reason animal testing has been seen as the only way of experimentation for so many years is that of animals likeness to humans. Animals are the perfect test subjects to investigate how diseases spread over generations. They grow similar to us but much faster. It is said by scientists that if animal testing is stopped, no more medical steps will be made in the future. There will never be a cure for cancer or a vaccine for aids, paralyzed people will never walk again and people with mental illness will
