With growing technology and research improving, vaccines have saved many lives to prevent the spread of diseases. Research through animal testing is used in many countries, and has been for many years. With hundreds of animal protection organizations and programs, many people find it hard to understand the significance of animal testing. Animal testing plays a huge role in preventing and curing diseases, discovering treatments and medicines, and creating vaccines for both humans and animals. Therefore

Animal experimentation causes tremendous harm and suffering to otherwise innocent animals. The cruelty level on testing ranges from food and water deprivation, to cosmetic purposes, to burning and chemical exposures, to injections of diseases they would have otherwise never contracted on their own, to purposeful death of an animal or groups of animals to see how it would take place or how much an animal can withstand before termination (Humane Society International).

Animal Testing Animals are a very important aspect in the world today, due to how much of a positive impact they can have on people.

In Hinduism cows are worshiped, in fact cows are not eaten and local villagers do not harm monkeys, there are

Animal research or animal experiment is the use of non-human animals in scientific research. Animals testing has played a crucial role to determine the safety of products such as drugs, household items, cosmetics, pesticide products etc. before applying them to humans. However, many people believe that using animals in experiments should never be used for research purpose. According to the German Ministry of Food and Agriculture and the Federal Statistical Office, 2.798 million animals have used

Animal Experimentation Animal experimentation is testing on animals such as guinea pigs, chimpanzees, rats, birds, and many other species, to find new medical discoveries and test new products for safety before sold for human consumption. Ever since ancient Greek times, animal testing has been used to learn more about the anatomy, physiology, pathology, and pharmacology of human beings. It wasn’t until 2011, when US Senator Maria Cantwell brought up the issue of animal experimentation in a bill called

It is easy to think of it because scientists doing research on animal subjects

Animal research is a controversial topic that has polarized the public as we know it. It has created a whole sector of social activism in American and in multiple parts of the world that is dedicated to put a complete halt to this form of research, but if it on their terms. When we analyze the benefits and the cost the argument to continue animal research clearly outweigh halting animal research. Animal research has allowed for the creation of multitude medical advances not only for human being,
