Research on live animals has been practiced since at least 500 BC. More than 25 million animals are tested in the laboratory each year. They are used for medical and scientific research. Animals used in research are often subjected to cruel experiments and suffer pain. In medical tests, less than 2% of human diseases are observed in animals. Medical tests on animals are therefore cruel and unnecessary. Medical testing on animals should be illegal because products that pass animal testing end up harming or killing humans about 61% of the time. Medical testing on animals is considered animal cruelty and is unnecessary. “Many animals are used in scientific and medical research. They are often subjected to cruel testing methods and suffer greatly as a result.” (Animal testing: cruel and unnecessary) Opponents of animal testing claim that it is cruel and inhumane to experiment on animals, that alternative methods available to researchers can replace animal testing, and that animals are so different from human beings that animal research often yields results. irrelevant results. Innocent animals are tested every year. Some are experimented on and are then killed after use, while others are kept alive and kept in captivity. In more than 1,000 laboratories across the country, monkeys are addicted to drugs, cats have gone deaf and have holes in their skulls, sheep and pigs have burned skin, and rats have crushed spinal cords. Tiny mice are made to develop tumors almost as big as their own bodies, kittens are intentionally blinded and rats are subjected to convulsions. Dogs are intentionally subjected to experimental drugs, chimpanzees are infected with debilitating diseases, and rabbits have grotesque devices implanted...... middle of paper ...... tested in a targeted manner, results do not are not accurate due to differences between animals and humans. A study showed that there was no way to find a cure for cancer in animals because animals and humans are very different from each other. I think animal testing is unnecessary and in conclusion animal testing is cruel and unnecessary. Scientists realize that testing drugs on animals is inaccurate and unnecessary. “A growing number of doctors and scientists around the world are emphasizing that animal research is completely unnecessary and that its misleading results often prove counterproductive and detrimental to human health.” (Human Victims: Animal-Based Medical Research) on animals is unnecessary and must be stopped. Animal test results are usually inaccurate and there is no need to test on innocent animals..
