[animal-testing.procon.org] Researchers in Aston University have made it known that it is not worth taking the lives of these animals for testing, because the things we’re trying to make happen with human bodies is very different from the animal body. The anatomic, metabolic, and cellular differences between animals and people make animals poor models for human beings. There is a big percentage from the 1950’s up till now that animal testing is flawed by not being correct when it is given to the people it is for. So why not just stop the animal experiments that are not just killing, but also torturing the animals.
Both types of cruelty should be taken seriously, but psychiatrists have found that harming animals is a precursor to committing more acts of violence. These acts of violence could potentially be against humans. FBI Supervisory Special Agent Allen Brantley was quoted as saying, "Animal cruelty is not a harmless venting of emotion in a healthy individual; This is a warning sign." Take the Columbine school
So, what are some of the good things that support the torturing of these poor animals? Let's see some of these animal testing pros that makes proponents of animal experimentation argue for use of animals in research. Animal testing helps in finding ways to help save lives of animals and humans by testing lifesaving drugs and processes. A few animals tend to react the same way like humans in response to certain diseases and allergies. This helps the scientists find a cure for certain diseases by studying these animals.
Experiments may not always go right, data might have been recorded incorrectly; there are many things that could cause harm to both humans and animals. A simple difference between a monkey or guinea pig and human’s bodily functions could easily mess up an experiment and allow chaos to break loose. This puts humans at risk by infecting them with viruses and illnesses that would not have been present in the lab if there was no testing to be done. Testing animals can put humans at risk, but it most definitely puts the animals themselves at risk. Animals are part of nature and allow the circle of life to continue and
The very first thing that comes to a person’s mind when the subject of animal experimentation is mentioned ,is a picture of a sad puppy or a kitten being tortured by evil scientists who want to hurt it for their own pleasure. But this is only us humans being sensitive to Cruelty it’s not like that at all. The truth is there are two main categories when it comes to animal experimentation; the first one is Chemical Experimentation. The environmental protection agency (EPA) is an agency that protects the environment in the United States and “has broad authority to issue regulations designed to gather health/safety and exposure information on, require testing of, and control exposure to chemical substances and mixtures.” (Epa.gov) Every chemical must be tested before its being imported into the United States to keep people in the country safe from bio terrorism or disease. Scientists test new drugs, materials and chemicals on Animals in order to determine the toxicity level of it and decide if it is safe or not before releasing the chemicals into human hands, if at all.
Animal testing should be banned When picking out your mascara or eyeliner, do you even stop to see what kind of makeup you are using? You could be supporting animal cruelty and not even know it. Today many makeup products, such as mascara, are being tested on animals. Helpless and defenseless animals are being performed on for different types of experiments all around the world. Most of the things being performed in these labs you could never imagine one human being doing to another.
When using someone from our own kind, we see it as cruel. But when using someone from another species, it is perfectly fine. “All the arguments to prove man's superiority cannot shatter this hard fact: in suffering the animals are our equals.” The significance of this novel is to open the eyes of the reader to the harsh realities of what is happening to animals in today’s society. Scientists perform harsh experiments that are often unnecessary and result in more experimentation. The United States government censors the cruelty from everyone in society, but they target
Someone finds the abandoned animal and turns him over to a local veterinarian. The animal will get the best treatment and recover...but, the question is, should someone be prosecuted because of the injuries, and the neglect which animal sustained? Should the animal have rights? Non-human animals bleed, they have a heart, they have brains, they feel pain and lastly, they are God's children. According to Bekoff, Michael Mountain published a summary of a recent meeting held in Cambridge, England at which; science leaders have reached a critical consensus: Humans are not the only conscious beings; other animals, specifically mammals and birds, are indeed conscious, too (n.p.).
Animal testing is wrong. I am going to talk about animal testing, why it is wrong and the effect that it has on the animals in general. It’s just disgusting what these people are doing to animals and even though they do it for medical research, they have no right to make another living creatures life a living hell. Here are a few examples: My first argument is storing the animals in cages. It is inhumane to keep animals in small enclosures like that where they wouldn’t even get room to stretch their legs or get the chance to behave like they would naturally in the wild.
Animal experimenting is cruel, harmful and inhumane; it is now and it always will be. What can you do to help? First of all you can read about groups such as PETA. PETA, which stands for PEOPLE FOR THE ETHICAL TRATMENT OF ANIMALS provides a long list of companies, which experiment on animals; you can also find a list of companies, which are animal safe. Remember do NOT buy products from those companies that abuse animal rights.
