3) Educate the public on how these mills operate and the conditions the animals live in. 4) Set up funding for Rescue and volunteers that take and foster these animals until good homes are found for them. 5) Monitor and regulate the sale of animals online. These would all be good steps but so much more needs to be done, preferably with showing leadership to ensure dog breeding is properly regulated I have strong feelings about the sale of rescue dogs in pet stores. It would still encourage the same impulse buying that currently happens.
a) Many of the animals used in these test die from the intense pain and suffering. 2. Costumer Product Safety Commission (cosmetic and household products), the Food and Drug Administration, and the Environmental Protection Agency (pesticide formulations and ingredients) require agencies to experiment on animals before selling their product. II. There are alternate methods for researching.
Veterinarian I chose to write about being a veterinarian because I love pets and would definitely love to save the lives of animals. I am such a baby when it comes to seeing an animal hurt on the side of the road, or even when I see a stray animal. Veterinarians should have the ability to be able to calm animals and to really let the animal know that you care. Graduation from an accredited college of veterinary medicine and a State license are required. Competition for admission to veterinary school is keen; however, graduates should have very good job opportunities.
10. Ask your parents to support your local shelter or animal rescue organization What is animal cruelty and what risks are involved in those who commit animal cruelty? If a group of people who believe in protecting animal was asked if hunting, calf roping and other animal activities were cruel, they might probably say “yes”. If the same question was ask to people who participated in these activities they might likely say “no”. We all see things from our own point of view regarding our concerns and interests.
Scientists use animals to learn more about health problems, and to assure the safety of new medical treatments. In order to obtain this, medical researchers need to understand health problems before they can develop ways to treat them. Some diseases and health problems involve processes that can only be study in living organisms. In the United States every person has benefited from the results of biomedical research. According to the World Health Organization life expectancy in the United States has improved from an average of 49 years around the 1900s to 69.3 years in 2004.
‘Experimenting with animals is worthy as it saves human life’ INTRO: Using animals to advance scientific knowledge understand disease and develop and test new medicines and life saving cures is a very controversial topic in today’s society. Whilst some go to extremes such as using violence to protect animals, others see no moral problems with animal testing for medical research as it is benefiting humans. FOR: Animal testing in the past has proved to be very successful, as it has developed vaccines to diseases such as TB, rabies and mumps. Every medical therapy has evolved from animal research for his reason it is believed that Animal testing is a good thing. If a doctor wants to use animals for research they have to prove that the harm of the animal equals the benefit it will give the human, also, through legislation all lab animals must be protected form cruelty of mistreatment.
Many argued that alternatives for testing products should be utilized. Although there are other alternatives, to this day, animals are being experimented on for people’s needs such as cosmetics and medical purposes. Animal testing for cosmetic purposes first started in 1933 when a woman used Lash Lure mascara, it burned her eyes, which made her blind and eventually led to her death. The Food and Drug Administration therefore passed a law called the Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act. Two common tests performed on animals to determine the toxicity of a chemical are the LD50 and the Draize test.
These reasons sometimes push animal shelters to tight corners and cause them to eliminate some of the pets that have not been adopted. If more people came up and adopted the dogs, fewer animals would be eliminated or tortured by those who adopt them for weird reasons. The other reason why one should adopt a dog is that when one adopts a dog from an animal shelter, he or she not only gets to save money but also gets to adopt healthy dogs. There is a common misconception that animals found in animal shelters usually have something wrong with them. The fact is there are numerous reasons that may make one give up a pet to an animal shelter.
Some animals are pulled out of their habitat and are used as research; yet some humans think they do not deserve any rights because they are animals. Throughout this paper I will portray examples of possibilities that can be used to change the life of an animal in the food industry, as a pet in homes and as research in laboratories; we need to help them have a better life even if we are going to use them as food, a companion and even as a science experiment, they have the right to enjoy life even if it’s for a moment. Factory farms today, thousands of animals are crammed into filthy, windowless sheds and confined to wire cages, gestation crates, barren dirt lots, and other cruel confinement systems. The factory farming industry strives to maximize output while minimizing costs of course at the animals' expense. The giant corporations that run most factory farms have found that they can make more money by cramming animals into tiny spaces, even though many of the animals get sick and some die.
People have yet to realize that their favorite type of deodorant or those good-smelling fragrances they like to put on were once tested on animals. These animals are forced to swallow or inhale large quantities of a test substance or endure the pain of having chemicals applied to their sensitive eyes and skin (Peta). Many times the results of animal tests are often not applicable to humans, but even if a product has blinded an animal, it can still be marketed to you. Many testing centers keep such animals out of their natural surroundings, until time to experiment on them. Throughout that time these animals become so unadapt to their new surroundings, they become less likely to return to their natural state which gives those experimenting more reason to test them.
