It is better to sacrifice one small rat for millions of human lives, because we can find cures for illnesses. Would you rather do an experiment on a rat than having a cure to save someone you love, or everyone else? Because of animal testing, we have found cures for all sorts of illnesses. Because of animal testing, we have saved millions of lives!
I think it goes both was because there r some stuff that should not be tested on animals for instance make-up or hair product ect....these r some stuff that doesn need testing on. If its for meds. Or any others in that categories then yes there should be animal testing.
NO! Animals are hurt, tortured and live in confinement for no reason what so ever. There are other, much more productive ways to test drugs, etc. For effectiveness or allergies. Did you know....penicillin was discovered without animal testing...IF animal testing was done at the time that penicillin was discovered it NEVER would have been approved because it is DEADLY to some animals, even though it cures and helps humans. Perfect example of why animal testing is inhumane, unnecessary, and downright ridiculous. Poor animals have feelings, emotions, and feel pain, too!!! I have done my research on this...this is not propaganda!
It is wrong to put other lives into testing for our benefits...however, without testing on living things the results may not be accurate. And at the end we might not have a cure or treatment for our love ones. It cannot not be banned, but sure it should be controlled. All the sick animals, such as lab monkeys, should be taken care of after the experiments. They should not neglected and left to die mercilessly.
Testing on animals helped develope vaccines for many life threatening illnbesses. These illnesses include herpes simplex, hepatitis b, polio, rabies, malaria, mumps, and viruses releated to organ transplantation rejection.
It doesnt matter whether they are testing the animals on hair products and make up. Its all the same. It is all giving harm to the animals, but on the other hand saving millions of lives. I have this topic for a debate. I am saying it should not be banned
Animal testing of lab animals usually mice is not good or bad but necessary to ensure that medicines are both safe for human consumption and effective as medicines.
I would also add that lab animals are not pets, lab animals are used in the end for strictly scientific purposes.
yes, but its effectiveness is questionable. Some groups of chemicals that are highly toxic to humans have no effects on some animals, for example, humans die quickly when exposed to cyanide, but cyanide has absolutely no observable effect on owls.
another hangup is that sometimes animals that are closely related to humans have different effects from some chemicals than humans, for example, monosodium glutamate testing on apes has shown different side effects on the apes than humans experience while the same tests conducted on rodents- mice, rats, etc- have shown nearly identical symptons to the ones humans experience.
even with these hangups, it is much more effective to test a product, especially a chemical or medical product, on animals than it is to test on humans. If it's something that has a good purpose besides simply money or something frivolous like fashion, I think animal testing is the right way to go to keep the products safe for people while at the same time allowing the economics of producing the product and testing it not destroy the company who's doing so.
so.. Yes, for some applications, animal testing is necessary. But for things like fashion, where they make dogs wear eye liner and so on... No, it's not necessary, it's not right, it's not excusable, it's messed up, etc.
Yes it is because if we didnt most of us would die cause they use animal testing mainly for seeing what happens when they give them medicine the medicine that you take everyday or you buy is tested on animals and we eat animals so y would it be such a big deal
