Ethical concerns

organisation PETA has a longstanding reputation of targeting well known brands and utilising confrontational and aggressive message strategies and tactics (Kanski 2016). In this scenario, activist concerns are animal cruelty and poultry meat health risks. As such, key messages and counterarguments will revolve around ethical and sustainable farming practices of Red Rooster (2017) suppliers such as ‘free range’ and promotion of non-usage of antibiotics, hormones and genetically modified animal feed, including

humans have a greater interest in staying alive. Due to our advanced cognitive abilities to understand what that means and our investments we have made into our lives makes human life in a sense more valuable. It is than plausible to apply this same concern to a human being who is dying due to say, liver failure; if it were not for the research done on pigs in regards to liver transplants, there may have never been an opportunity for this person to survive (“Medical Advances” 21).

The article questions the view of whether animal testing is ethical and regulatory or not. The author addresses the ethical and social well-being of animals. Moreover, he claims that scientists still find the necessity to use live animals in experiments. Thus, having large variety of pain control to a more generalized level

In all fields of science, researchers are faced with ethical dilemmas. While different in nature, scientists are brought back to the same question of integrity. Some problems arise when a participant’s “right to confidentiality” is threatened, as Ioana Hiriscau and colleagues point out. ( Hiriscau, I., Stingelin-Giles, N., Stadler, C., Schmeck, K., & Reiter-Theil, S. (2014). A right to confidentiality or a duty to disclose?

ignored. It is with measure that we do not enact a bill of rights for animals, however we bring new awareness of animal research and the ethical treatment of all

The overall idea of testing on animals should be considered to be unethical. In terms of medical research purposes, it is necessary to continue making progress in the medical field, especially in terms of infectious diseases. The main ethical concern that receives the most criticism from activists and animal welfare groups is the overall treatment of animals. As seen in the opening sequence of 28 days later, the animal activists were trying to free the monkeys that were held in medical research

The second factor to take into consideration consists on the ethical considerations of animal experiments, as animals have the ability to suffer just like humans do. Under some circumstances, a major key issue of testing animals implicates pain and suffering, which is not considered by laboratories. Many researchers still frequently use live animals in their experiments and before they research is done, the pain and distress potential which can be inflicted on the creatures needs to be evaluated

Animal Testing According to PETA, (People for the Ethical Treatment) over one hundred million animals- including dogs, cats, rabbits, monkeys, mice, rats, frogs, and birds are killed in U.S laboratories for biomedical testing each year. The term “animal testing” refers to the use of live animals in experiments and development projects usually meant to determine toxicity, dosage, and efficiency of test drugs. More often than not, a live animal is forced to undergo pain, distress, and even lasting

pharmaceuticals, vaccines, and medical devices used for surgery and other treatments. It has also been used throughout history for various purposes. Once an unregulated practice, today there are laws, regulations, and requirements associated with the ethical use of animal models. In the United States, animal studies are now required before moving on to clinical trials. Legalities aside, controversy still arises between scientists, and public opinion can vary from unconcerned to extreme. The practice

straightforward as black and white, there are a handful of grey areas that raise ethical concerns. These areas can range from something as simple as the correct attribution of information, to as complex as the controversial practice of native advertisements. Journalists, however, have access to an abundance of resources, including multiple sets of guidelines, which can help them make a difficult decision about an ethical dilemma. Whether they are filing stories or creating media campaigns, journalists
