Animal Testing, and How Wrong It Is

Killing for research is Ok when it comes to animals

Animal testing has been going on for years, and about 1.4 million animals die each year from being tested on. From drugs to makeup helpless animals are deforming and dying. This is why animal testing should be banned.

“Animal testing is a waste of money, time and resources that could have been spent on human relevant research,” said Peta.

Peta also says “Reports say that 92 out of every 100 drugs that pass the animal tests fail on humans.”

Why waste so much time testing on animals if it might not even work, or if you could be spending your time on something more serious?

If the products are for humans why can’t someone test it out on themselves? I’m sure there are lots of people willing to test these products in order to end animal testing.

In vitro (in glass) testing, such as studying cell cultures in a petri dish, can produce more relevant results than animal testing because human cells can be used.” said Pro-Con.

“First, animals’ rights are violated when they are used in research.” said lonestar.edu .

From the examples given animal research should be banned because it is inhuman, a waste, cruel, and can easily be changed. No animal should be put under these conditions, ever.
