Yuchan And John: Animal Testing

Animal testing is not only beneficial to human but also animals, at least to those who are not used in the experiments, such as pets and endangered species. Along with researching for new treatments and medicines for

Animal testing is a common practice in current life that is necessary to ensure the safety of the humans that will be using the tested product. There are many good and bad aspects of animal testing, but the pros clearly outweigh the cons. Animal testing has been around since ancient times when animals were dissected to gain knowledge about the body and organs. The animals killed from animal testing make up a tiny percentage of the total animals killed every year. When just considering the animals used for food compared to the animals used for testing, testing animals make up a mere 2.6 percent of that number. Public safety far outweighs the lives of the small amount of animals killed.

Animal testing is an experimentation performed on animals. Scientists test on animals to assess the how safe and effective a product for humans is, this can be anything from medication, pesticides, industrial chemicals, food additives, household products, supplements, and cosmetics. Animal testing is morally wrong as it involves the torturing of innocent animals. “Right now, millions of mice, rats, rabbits, primates, cats, dogs, and other animals are locked inside cold, barren cages in laboratories across the country. They languish in pain, ache with loneliness, and long to roam free and use their minds. Instead, all they can do is sit and wait in fear of the next terrifying and painful

An animal test is 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. Animal testing is good and bad thing. It’s a good thing because we can get medicines to cure diseases and sicknesses.

Animal testing has many advantages that have made a better society for people. Animal testing can be defined as, “the use of non-human animals in research and development projects, esp. for purposes of determining the safety of substances such as foods or drugs” (“Dictionary 1”). Animal testing is literally how it sounds to others. Animals are being tested on in order to try different products made by scientists in order to better the society.

Animal testing is when animals are used in different tests, experiments, and studies. These tests, experiments, and studies often result in the harm and/or death of the animals. People often say the animals are used in order to benefit humans, such as making sure that products are safe and helping make advancements in medicine. When people use everyday products, most never think about how the product was determined to be safe. The animal’s involuntary sacrifice is almost never even a thought in most people’s minds. These animals undergo cruel treatment, harmful experiments, and even death for the “benefit” of humans.

Animal testing is an ongoing problem throughout the world. Animal Testing is when scientists or researchers study how animals react to a certain chemical, drug, treatment, or cosmetic. Many types of people who conduct experiments that involve animals. The most common people who test on animals are scientists, researchers, experimenters, chemists, and students. They often test on animals because they have human like traits. Animal testers use animals to test their products so humans aren’t affected

In the first place, "The term "animal testing" refers to procedures performed on living animals for purposes of research into basic biology and diseases, assessing the effectiveness of new medicinal products" (About Animal Testing). Corporations that test on animals can legally put on the product "No animal was harmed in the making of this product", even though that may or

“We have made a way from studying humans… we all drank Kool-Aid on that one included…The problem is that (animal testing) hasn’t worked, and it’s time we stopped dancing around the problem…We need to refocus and adapt ne methodologies for use in humans to understand diseases in biology in humans” (Dr.Elias Zerhouni). Animal testing is when animals are taking from their habitat and put in cages in a laboratory. They wait in the cages until scientist have to do scientific testing and commercial testing on them. These poor animals get tortured just so a company can take out a new hair spray. We should not use animals for scientific or commercial testing.

Animal testing is for biological, medical, and cosmetic purpose. So they test the products or drugs on these innocent animals. And that lets animals suffer from a lot of pain and because the animals can not talk , humans exploit this weakness. For example, there is a cosmetic test which is the Draize eye irritancy test, and they drop a substance into the animal eyes and this causes blindness. And there is another test called The LD50 test, that animals inject with chemicals

Most people have heard the phrase animal testing, but some are still not aware of what it actually involves. Animal testing can also be called animal research, and it refers to the experimentation on animals for many different medical treatments for humans. Several different animals are tested on, from rodents to primates. It can take place at medical schools, universities, or pharmaceutical companies. Some animals are bred specifically for medical testing. Others, can be taken from the wild, and placed in an animal testing facility. Without animal testing, we wouldn’t have the knowledge or successful treatments for: Leukemia and breast cancer, kidney failure and transplants, Alzheimer’s disease, HIV and Aids, polio, and premature birth. Whether

Animal testing is cruel and inhumane. Every year, more than a hundred million animals- including mice, dogs, cats, rabbits, monkeys, and many more- are killed in the U.S. They are killed for laboratories in biology lessons, training, curiosity experiments, and chemical, drug, food, and cosmetics testing. Experimenting on animals is a cruel way of testing products. Alternative testing methods now exist that can replace the need for animals. Most experiments involving animals are flawed, which wastes the lives of the animals. Also, animals suffer just like humans, so it is speciesism to experiment on animals while refraining from experimenting on humans.

Before putting a product out in the world scientist have to first make sure it is safe for people to use. To do this they have to test it on a living being. As said before most scientists prefer to do animal testing first. They are able to do this because animals and humans are very similar we have the same organ systems that do the same things in roughly the same way. In the article, Animal Testing Saves by Nicholas Clark, Clark quoted,“animals are genetically

To be brief, animal testing has its rights and wrongs as well as its limits. Constant argument between the two sides brings the helping views from both perspectives. A scientific purpose allows one to gain information and build up to new achievements while a commercial purpose gives results of which product is harmful. Both currently make an impact in society with their beneficial results. Yet with the information and number of new improvements one makes, animal testing should only be in use for scientific purposes. With data and proof, one is able to prove and conclude which one is best to

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.
