Testing on animals is almost like testing on humans, while, yes, testing on humans would be the only other option, but animals are living things too, they have feelings just like humans do and don't deserve to die because of some test that's being conducted on them when they don't even get any form of a say in it
@9XSDBT28mos8MO
Animals being alive and having feelings is irrelevant. The political system, and by extension, the medical system, exists to serve human interests. If those interests come at the expense of a few hundred-thousand lab animals, then so be it. The political and medical consequences of making this illegal far outweigh any benefit. And just to be clear, there is no benefit whatsoever to making this practice illegal, beyond placating a minority of people who stand to gain nothing as well. The concept of "animal rights" does not exist in practice, and serious pursuit in its favor is a fraudulent act. So to argue this from an animal rights angle isn't a compelling case.

I say no beacue thats animal abuse and isn't right. It could harm animals and we need animals in the world.
@TheHillbillyLordRepublican5mos5MO
We need animals for food. Some animals are useless and don't need to live. Like rats, what do rats do for us, besides being able to be used for tests and experiments? Wild cats? What do they do? Viciously kill and eat humans who wander too far and get lost? They actually don't even deserve to live, unless they can be used for testing and experiments.
@9GQMT5J2yrs2Y
animals have no way of saying how they feel and are forced to do testing they shouldn't be put through
@TheHillbillyLordRepublican5mos5MO
testing necessary to test the safety of things before putting a person through it and potentially killing them. Would you rather a human die or an animal die to a failed experiment?
@9GRVYDR2yrs2Y
If you had acid poured on you almost everyday of you short life, how would you feel? Now think about how those animals feel.
@TheHillbillyLordRepublican5mos5MO
Animals are inferior to people, no one cares how they feel. Their only purpose is to benefit humans. If it was a pet, yes that is cruel, but if it was on a wild animal, who cares?
@9GS77NQ2yrs2Y
your a horrible human being and very selfish cause animals that just want love and to be in a happy home are getting there face burned cause people want face wash honestly use predators and murders and test victims..
@9FBKQ6TWomen’s Equality2yrs2Y
i dont think animal testing is right. you should not use animals to test products on them. its not right they are living things.
I think animal abuse is wrong because innocent animals shouldn't be harmed for no reason. I think we can create better technology instead of harming our animals.
@9FF9ZQ9 2yrs2Y
That animals are living they should not be tested for an exprirement that could go wrong and end with the animals dead. We need animals and if they were to go extinct, we would go extinct
@9FLRDWHWomen’s Equality2yrs2Y
It's estimated that each year more than 50 million dogs, cats, monkeys, rabbits, rats and other animals are forced to painful experiments in the U.S. These animals are sickened with toxic chemicals or infected with diseases, live in cages and are usually killed when the experiment ends.
@9GVX9Q42yrs2Y
Animals don’t deserve to be tested on when we have technology that could potentially do the same job.
@9FN936S2yrs2Y
It is inherently unethical. Even if it might help people in the future, it is not worth it because of the pain and suffering animals will go through.
@9GV3LVJIndependent2yrs2Y
There is humane testing of products on things that aren't animals, like samples of human tissue. It doesn't hurt a living animal that can't defend itself. We have other options.
@9GVRHR22yrs2Y
it is inhumane to put innocent animals in harm, likely causing them death souling for the fact that "it is a crime to be small" in a world full of heartless people.
@9GVCMJX2yrs2Y
If people were to use animals for testing they would overdo it and end up making some type of new animal or kill off that species
@9F8TGH42yrs2Y
Animals are helpless when it comes to humans. Even just us being in their habitat freaks them out, imagine what it's like to be taken to a lab against your will and be tortured so we can know if it'll work on humans. If you're going to test human products, test them on an actual human, not a defenseless animal.
@9GBB2JQ2yrs2Y
It is killing and torturing and killing animals just to try and make sure that humans don't have a horrible effect but we are willing to do bad things to animals to help ourselves.
Many vaccines that helped prevent AIDS, cancer, HIV and many other diseases have been able to be prevented or treated with the use of animals.
@9FTQBHG2yrs2Y
Animals deserve to die before humans do, however cruelty to any life is harsh and hard to get behind.
@9GS769Q2yrs2Y
Yes we should, because this will help us to prevent things that may happen on a humans life instead of an animal.
@9F8LR792yrs2Y
animals can't say no clearly it's just messed up for them to on things that can't do anything abt it
@9FMM2V52yrs2Y
Many vaccines to dangerous disease were founded using animal testing, which has saved millions of humans.
@9GKL9H42yrs2Y
They are animals. Not only is their genetic code different from that of humans, so in reality a product could have no effect on the animal but have an effect on a human. Not to mention depending on the product the animal can still fricken feel pain and would be hurt in the testing, which is literally just effing cruel.
