Every day, thousands of animals in laboratory cages undergo painful experiments. After three dogs were forced to ingest an experimental drug every day for five days, they experienced difficulties breathing and a high heart rate. One dog died and the other two were put to death one day later. Animal testing is beneficial for scientific growth but is very cruel and inefficient. Laboratories that have grown human organs and are testing them are getting better and more accurate results than a laboratory

The research and practice of Xenotransplantation has been around since the early 1900s, with doctors attempting to transplant organs from pigs, goats, lambs, or monkeys to humans (Biotech Learning Hub, 2011). Essentially, Xenotransplantation is defined as transplanting or grafting tissues and/or organs from one species to another species (PBS, 2000). Scientists and doctors around the world have been researching and experimenting for years on how to successfully complete this procedure without creating

Animal testing should not be banned for many apparent reasons. It is obvious that animal testing has improved the lives of many around the world and contributed valuable and life-saving information to us. Living a longer and healthier life was made possible since the human body is vulnerable to many diseases, viruses, and bacterias and we found many cures to them, like polio. According to the article Animal Research Benefits on https://www.amprogress.org there are more than 9,000 children diagnosed

Veterinarians perform countless surgeries on domestic animals throughout their career. Many of these operations, however, are predominantly cosmetic and primarily requested by the owner for personal benefit (Mills, Robbins, and Keyserlingk, 2016). Procedures such as tail docking, ear cropping a domesticated dog, or declawing a particularly destructive indoor house cat may be beneficial to an owner, but the very little benefit an animal gets from these surgeries has created immense disagreement with

Ishmael Beah was separated from his family at age 12 because he and his brother were away from their home in the small country of West Africa known as Sierra Leone, performing in a rap group with friends, when their home village was attacked. Ishmael, his brother and their friends wandered from village to village in search of food and

He’s shivering as the goop is rinsed off his fur. The creature looks around, just hoping for someone in this cold, empty, white room to save him. Soon the men in white lab coats crowd around the poor dog. They conclude the product gives chemical burns and the formula is discarded. “This is no way to treat an animal,” one of the scientists thinks. Many others believe animals should not be tested on as well. Animals, beings who have done no wrong, are not only ignorant of the things done to them, but

Millions of animals die each day! People should start thinking about all those animals that risk their lives for them! According to ¨Understanding animal research.org¨William Harvey used animals 400 years ago to discover how blood circulated in the body (William Harvey). The modern era of animal research started about 150 years ago.Products should not be tested on animals.

The subject of my documentary film will be based on an American interest group called PETA. PETA stands for “people for the ethical treatment of animals”, it is an organization that stands against animal testing and abuse.

Many people debate that it is animal abuse and its just not right but how many people does animal testing help. Many question that are asked is how does animals help, why should we use animals, and with new research should we still use animals. Animal, especially mammals, are very similar to humans (Chang). Animals help humans more then most people know. Studies
