Why We Shouldn T Animal Testing Be Banned

The experimentation of animals is very disagreeable in our society. It is cruel to animals and people with the work that goes into it. Testing on animals should be stopped because it is an unhelpful, unnecessary, and an expensive, time wasting, way of testing products.

For many years, the field of science has used animals in medical experiments worldwide, because of this innocent animals are being killed everyday. They are being tested with new drugs, new treatments, and by many makeup companies. Connecticut recently celebrated the passage of the “Beagle Freedom Law”, a law that requires laboratories to work with charities and rescue groups to find homes for research cats and dogs. Animals are being tested so humans do not have to be but animal tests do not reliably predict results in human beings, although animals are the closest thing to humans. Most experiments involving animals are flawed, wasting the lives of innocent animal subjects. Over 100 million animals suffer a year from testing. Testing animals is a lot more expensive than alternative methods and it is wasting government research dollars. Animal testing is not only a bad idea, but it is also inhuman and it should not be tolerated. The FDA should stop allowing animal testing. An animal does not give out the same results on a test than a human would.

Animal testing has been a controversial topic discussed by many people over the past decade. There are many organizations that are trying to ban the use of animal testing because of the cruelty us humans are doing to innocent animals and the pain and suffering these animals go through. The first organization I found when researching was PETA (People, Ethical, Treatment, Animals). From my research, this is the largest animal rights group founded so far. Their main office is in Norfolk, VA. They are not only fighting animal testing but animals for the use of food, clothing and entertainment. This organization has donated over a million dollars to find non-animal testing methods. Another organization I found was PCRM (Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine).

Eyes being injected with chemicals, tests that are causing mutations, an endless cycle of torture. Every life is just as important as another. If all those things were done to humans just to have a better appearance it would be a way bigger deal. Instead scientists are doing this to animals and most don’t seem to care as long as they get their long volumized lashes, their plump colorful lipsticks, their soft hair, their de-wrinkle skin replenishing lotions, no one cares as long as they’re benefitting from it. Animal testing shouldn’t be allowed; It should be banned. Testing cosmetics on animals is not only unnecessary but also cruel and inhumane. Things like mascara aren’t just tested on “gross rats” but also dogs, cats, bunnies, pigs, sheep, monkeys, birds, ferrets and many more cute little animals.

Many people have a pet in which they would never want to get hurt. Each year in the United States, over seventy million animals are hurt and killed due to scientific research. Many brands have taken the pledge to become cruelty free, but there are still multiple brands that are continuing to use animals to test their products. Animal testing should be banned because it is cruel, often ineffective, can not detect for many diseases that humans are exposed to, and can be unsafe due to the differences between animals and humans.

Animal testing is wrong for various reasons. The history of animal testing goes back to the writings of the ancient Greeks and is defined as any scientific experiment or test in which a live animal is forced to undergo something that is likely to cause them pain, suffering, distress or lasting harm. Examples of animal testing include: forcing mice and rats to inhale toxic fumes, force-feeding dog’s pesticides, and dripping chemicals into rabbits’ eyes. Although, many people believe that animal testing has contributed to many life-saving cures and treatments, innocent animals used in laboratories are deliberately harmed, for a company’s benefit, and are usually killed at the end of the experiment. Animal testing has negative effects on not only animals, but on society and the economy. Some reasons why include, but are not limited to: alternative methods exist that are safer, ethical, and cheaper; billions of dollars are wasted each year on animal testing because neither the corporations nor the customers are benefiting from it; and just because the product is tested for animals, it does not necessarily make it safe for humans. Therefore, because animal testing is unreliable, leads to billions of wasted dollars, and causes an incredible amount of animal suffering, we must begin to use alternative methods and raise awareness about this huge issue.

For decades now animal testing has been a known method in society. The downside of the reality is society is not fully aware of what is going on behind closed doors, and the severity of what animal testing truly is. Although there have been many points where animal testing has proven to help in certain studies, it is also proven to be unnecessary. Biomedical industries are looking for the next cure or the safest makeup for example, but the process of it all is wrong. There are millions of animals yearly being put through suffering and cruel conditions with no break or recovery time. There is no way to actually see results in such a vigorous treatment. These animals are sick and abused daily for long periods of time and to think that any living

In some ways I be-live animal testing should be illegal but I also feel like it should be legal. In order to solves the worlds problems you have to start small. Like what if you wanted to see a hybrid of animals you would have to take a sample of DNA from one animal and put it into another animal. so for example what if you have a three legged mouse and you know lizards limbs grow back so you would take a sample of the lizard and insert it into a mouse. So that is starting small. And what if your testing is good then .You would move up to something larger like a three legged cat then dog then horse. And imagine if all your resolute have been a success you would like to try it on a humans.

There is a debate in the world today. Some people think they should do testing on animals and some people think they shouldn’t test animal because it’s not right for them to test and kill the animals when they're done. The United States is having a lot of trouble with people testing animals because this group called PETA is trying to end testing all over the world. The PETA is fighting for the animal welfare act. The animal welfare act does not let test on animal.

Animal testing has helped develop many life-saving treatments for both humans and animals and there are rules that prevent the mistreatment of animals in laboratories. Millions of animals are used each and every year in the United States for scientific and commercial testing. They are used to develop medical treatments, test the effects of medications, check the safety of products, and much more. Research on living animals has been practiced for many years and has provided many benefits to us.

Animal Testing is the process of experimentation involving using products on non-human animals and recording the reaction on the animal in order to see the effects of a product. Each year over 100 million innocent animals are killed for animal testing. Usually products used on animals will have negative effects that will result in painful effects for the animals. Animal testing is a great advance in medical technology, but hurts the animals that are being tested. Products that are tested on animals could include cosmetics, skincare, cleaning supplies, and household items. Companies feel the need to test on animals to see the reaction on them and determine what could happen when the consumer uses uses the product. All of these animals being

First we should know what animal testing is, Animal tests are usually done on rats and mice. They test different beauty products and hair conditioners on the animals and that doesn’t seem to bad, but other scientists make the animals eat poisons and see who dies first. and some starve them are give them electric shocks. Most of the lab animals never even been outside, and most are born in captivity.

Even though animal testing has only recently become a topic of discussion, animal research has been around since 500 B.C (“Animal Testing”). In the olden days, animal research was used to better understand the functions of the body. Greek scientists performed testing on living animals. During animal testing they examined nerves and tendons in order to further understand their functions (“Animal Testing: A Long”). Today in the United States, about 26 million animals are tested for medical and commercial reasons each year. According to the Foundation for Research, animal species that are tested on include: rats, dogs, mice, nonhuman primates, and rabbits (“Animal Research Behind Top Drugs”). Results from these tests are used to create medicine,

Every year millions of animals are burned, tortured and crippled in research that does not even result in safer products for humans. In fact, more than 90% of experimental drugs that are shown to be safe and effective in animals do not work for humans and are considered unsafe. Animal testing is barbaric; the small benefit that may be gained through testing in no way rights the torture these animals are put through. Not only is the testing harmful to the animals, it is extremely expensive. Millions of dollars a year are made by companies that provide the animals, but billions are spent on research that cannot even be used. In an effort to create data, we use animal testing results and try to apply it to the genetic makeup of humans, it doesn’t work. The physiology of humans is just too different to apply the information used in animal research. Research that involves the use of animals is inhumane and cruel, it incurs costs that are wasteful because the research is unsubstantiated and does not give useful information that can be applied to human benefit. There are better alternatives to this completely ineffective testing and waste of money, we should all voice our concerns and plead with law makers to ban testing on animals.

What is animal testing? Animal testing is experimentation carried out on living animals. Its purpose is to research basic biology and diseases and assessing the effectiveness of medicine for human use (About Animal Testing). Every year in the U.S., millions of animals are utilized as models in biological and medical research to study human disease, injury, development, psychology, as well as anatomy and physiology (Biomedical Research). All procedures, even those relegated as “mild”, have the potential to cause the animals physical suffering as well as psychological distress (About Animal Testing). Most animals are killed at the cessation of an experiment, but some may be reused in subsequent experiments. Animals often suffer greatly in these studies, as they are inflicted with diseases, traumas, and pain they would not mundanely experience in order to mimic human conditions.
