It shows clearly that animal testing is very cruel and inhumane, because scientist force them to eat and drink just for experiment. “For example: forcing dogs to inhale cigarette smoke did not show a link to lung cancer; Flossing, an arthritis medication, tested safe in monkeys but caused deaths in humans; and the recalled diet drug fen-phen caused no heart damage in animals, while it did in humans--just a small sampling of volumes of examples.” (NEAVS-- New England anti-vivisection society)
Replace animals from experiments doesn’t mean that we put human beings at risk also doesn’t mean that medical progress is slow or not develop. Instead, replacing animal experiment will improve the humaneness of science. According to National Institute of Environment Health Science “We can replace animals by computer models or cell- based system, for traditional animal’s models, or replace one animal species with a less highly developed one like replacing mouse with worm.” We could treat animal by decreasing pain and distress in animals or enhancing animal well-being. As of now, “China is the only large cosmetic industry that made 32 billion worth of cosmetics it mandatory for all products sold in their country to be tested on animals. Where America is making steps in the right direction to end animal testing all together by beginning to use alternative testing methods that do not involve animals at all.” It’s a good start but just doing our self is not enough, we should educate
“ Always remember others may hate you but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them, and then you destroy yourself.” This is a quote about Richard M. Nixon, i took out that from his importance he was hated. Being important figure will include going through meaningful processes help make progress in the world, which these processes are usually lead my people with great importance. Communities will praise them for what they do, but not everyone will agree. People will disagree and can dislike leading to hating someone for their decisions. As the president with what they try to reinforce into our country which they are leading. “He is comical but he also represents the worst of our country.” This was said about Donald Trump an opinion from one person showing hatred. Opinions of people show the hate there is for him, even with the hatred he is the leader of our country. Many people still praise him and believe in him or he wouldn't be our president. Important people get their importance from taking risks , their views, from gaining power, being hated and loved.
There are over 26 million different types of animal being tested on for research each year in the United States. Animals are used for testing every year for human research. Different animals go through serious pain, in order for humans to facilitate growth in different fields of study. Many animals are used in order to study diseases and potential cures for the diseases. New research chemicals are tested on animals with similar structures to humans, to see if the medicine can help with certain diseases. Tons of scientific advancement has taken place because of animal testing. Without animal testing, many diseases would still exist, without a safe way to test for potential cures. The issue at hand is the type of treatment that animals have to endure because of the different testing methods. They are treated very poorly, go through intense suffering, and normally have very poor living conditions. A pro to animal testing is that many cures and different medicines have been developed through animal testing. Without animal testing, many diseases would still exist without cures. Secondly, animals have a much shorter life span than humans do, so scientists can study the results through the whole life span of the animal. With humans, it is hard to do a full test because we have such high lifespans, while animals tend to live a lot less longer. Thirdly, many animals have been saved because of animal testing. Many diseases animals deal with now have vaccines and cures, as a result of animal testing. Without it, many animals would have rabies or other types of virus that can be detrimental to the animal’s health. On the contrary, a con to animal testing would be the pain many animals go through as a result of the testing. The tests are experimental, so we don’t know exactly what the chemical drug will do to the animal. Many cases have turned bad and many animals have died as a result, or gone through extensive pain. Next, there are many alternative methods of experimental testing that doesn’t require animals. As a result, why are we still using animals for testing when there are other ways to do it. Finally, animals are different from humans, so they make poor testing subjects. We can’t know for sure how the research
Almost every medicine that can be found in an average person’s medicine cabinet has been tested on an animal at one point or another. A government funded corporation called the Food and Drug Administration, abbreviated as the FDA, is in charge of making sure that all drugs, cosmetics, biological products, and more are efficient, secure, and safe for human usage. The FDA will not allow any drug to be released or sold to the human population if it has not first been tested on animals. In fact, when a drug is first created it is tested on animals before humans are even allowed to test the drug at clinical trial centers. Whether or not animal testing should be done for scientific purposes, has been a widely argued topic for many years
Animals do not suffer from the same diseases that us humans have, for example curing heart failure induced by cutting a dogs aorta will not help to cure heart failure caused by a build-up of cholesterol in human arteries. We waste animal lives everyday and for what? The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has noted that 92 percent of all drugs that are shown to be safe and effective in animal tests fail in human trials because they don’t work or are dangerous. And of the small percentage of drugs approved for human use, half end up being relabeled because of side effects that were not identified in tests on animals. This makes it extremely dangerous to humans, because animal testing is not dependable, it can cause serious side effects to humans that weren’t an issue to the animals during testing.
Ninety-two percent of experimental drugs that are safe and effective in animals fail in human clinical trials because they are too dangerous or don't work. (Top Five, (n.d)). Everything we use from medications and vaccines to makeup and hygiene products; such as shampoo, conditioner all have to be tested and deemed safe for human use and consumption. One way to test to insure these things are safe is to test these products on animals. There are many reasons why animal testing should not be allowed, first being that the results vary greatly between humans and animals, secondly it is unethical and abusive and third there are other methods available to test products. Although people say they’re just animals, product testing on animals is unethical and abusive, and there are alternative options to test.
A controversial and often debated topic that has been circulating for years now is the use of animals in scientific research. Different opinions can be given on this case. Some people think animal testing isn’t bad, while others oppose it, claiming it’s not ethical and it should stop. The debate has been going on for a while, but I think it will be coming to an end soon as in my opinion, animal testing is a cruel method of research that shouldn’t be used by anyone for any reason. This is evident and supported by many facts and reasons.
According to the National Institutes of Health, animal testing has been around since the days of philosopher Aristotle. According to ProCon.org, there are an estimated 26 million animals used for scientific and commercial testing in the U.S. alone. Animal testing has brought many good things to the medical world, such as the treatment various disease. Also, the animal is being tested by many cosmetics companies. On the other hand, organizations like PETA- People of Ethical Treatment of Animals have fought against the medical testing of animals. There are pros and cons that come with the usage of animals in the biomedical and cosmetic testing, and each side needs should be carefully examined before deciding one way or another.
Not only does animal testing save human lives; additionally, what people do not realize is that it is also used to find medications and treatments specifically for animals. Animals also have diseases that are different from human diseases that need to be treated. According to NAP of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, “In many cases, treatments have been developed specifically for animals. The ability to eliminate parasitism, treat illnesses, use anesthetic devices, and promote breeding has improved the
Over 100 million animals are killed in experiments in the U.S. alone each year, according Laboratory Animal Resource Center at UC San Francisco. At the University of Missouri a study was done were they intentionally damaged the corneas of the dogs and given a topical acid treatment that was supposed to heal the eye, it did not, and the beagles were eventually put to death. Because of the cruel nature of animal testing, there should be an alternative.
Over one hundred million animals every year die from animal testing, in the medical and cosmetic fields alone (“Experiments on Animals: Overview”). Animal testing is as big of a problem today as it has been in the past. Most people do not agree with animal testing today but years ago it was one of the only ways of testing. It was considered, if not the only, effective and efficient ways of testing a product’s toxicity. To date, animal testing is not warranted because of the development of new technology and past discoveries. Many organizations and brands publicly oppose animal testing. The companies that stand against animal testing are broad and diverse, ranging from medical to cosmetic testing, advocating that at its core, this issue is
Everyone is a member of different organizations in different occasions. Human activities are built on relationships (Homans, 2009, p. 1), so relevant researches about relationship began decades ago (Vangelisti & Perlman, 2006, p. ix). Leader-Member-Exchange (LMX) theory is a kind of leadership style, which concentrates on a dyadic relationship between leaders and members (Graen & Cashman, 1975). This is a long time history, people began to research relationships between leaders and followers, and affect that relationship impacts on leaders and follower (Graen & Uhl-Bien, 1995). Most of previous researches of LMX theory focused on members to claim high-quality LMX relationships could cause followers’ high job satisfaction, good work engagement because of the plentiful and abundant work resources (Breevaart et al., 2015, p. 754), and positive knowledge sharing (Hassanzadeh, 2014). Followers’ expectations also can be concentrated (Little, Gooty & Williams, 2015, p. 11).
Experimenting on animals is a traditional practice in many fields of science although as times have changed it is time to start question the necessity and reliability of animal experiments. Very few tests conducted on animals actually benefit people, meaning the loss of countless animal lives with no substantial benefit to humanity. According to Andrew Rowan, “In 2004, a report by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration noted that 92 percent of new drug entities were failing during human clinical trials either because the new drugs were not effective in humans (having shown promise in animals) or because they were associated with unexpected toxicity (having been demonstrated to be safe in animals)” (2015). The fact that countless experiments lead to no progress forward in terms of benefitting people it reasonable to do away with it entirely and seek alternative methods. In his article author Andrew Rowan looks forward to an age free of animal testing that will be more cost effective and beneficial than testing on animals. It is clear that if it is resulting in hardly any value to society other than trivial aspects like patience that can be achieved through less morally corrupt ways, using animals for experimentation goes against the rights they deserve to
Animal experimentation is a big part of medical progress. Opponents of animal testing point out the amount of animals used and the different types of animals used but if you look at it, it’s all for a good reason. Animal experimenters don’t do this just to do it. It’s for a purpose. There are thousands upon thousands of medical situations that couldn’t have been done without animal experimenting. Animal suffering is pointed out but for the most part animals go without feeling any pain. Animal experimentation has helped advance us so much medically that no matter what extent of suffering you find or what type of alternatives you find, it will never fully disappear.
Students often find their fate in their own hands; they can choose to make a better future for themselves by working hard in school and absorbing all the information thrown at them, or they can choose to lag behind, not pay attention, and possibly fail. However, for many students that reside at subpar schools, this is not the case. These students are often at a disadvantage due to bad teachers at these feeble schools. They are not taught correctly and therefore are not prepared well for the challenging life ahead of them. Waiting for Superman is a documentary by Davis Guggenheim that follows five students’ journeys to find a better source of education while discussing the flaws within these substandard institutions. Guggenheim takes the audience on an emotional journey and frequently uses animations in order to help the audience understand the problems at underprivileged schools caused by bad teachers, and give a sneak peek into students’ lives from a new perspective.
it's a constant race to discover the next big medical break or scientific discovery where often times an animal was used, without the use of animal testing we wouldn’t of been able to discover the things we have because there’s no alternative to animal testing because nothing is closer in DNA and of the living life form.
