We should not do animal testing, it is cruelty for our own benefit. Only animals that produce food should be harmed not animals who don't for no reason.
@9GT9X2H6mos6MO
Depending on what u use to test the animals they could die and ur basically a murderer and animal abuser and you would be killing that animal for no reason.

-It’s unethical to sentence 100 million thinking + feeling animals to life in a laboratory cage and causing them pain, loneliness, and fear.
-The National Institutes of Health reports that 95 out of every 100 drugs that pass animal tests fail in humans.
It’s all very wasteful.
-Animal experiments prolong the suffering of people waiting for cures because the results mislead experimenters and waste money, time, and other resources that could be spent on human relevant research. Animal experiments are so worthless that up to half of them are never published.
-The world doesn’t need another stupid funded test on animals so that an experimenter can continue riding the grant gravy train that they are receiving.

dont test things on animals they are living things like we are. they have a life and they need to live their life.

Many life-saving treatments and vaccines, such as the polio vaccine, have been developed thanks to animal testing.
Let's take the case of insulin, for example. Before the discovery of insulin, diabetes was a fatal disease. Dogs played a crucial role in the discovery and development of insulin in the early 20th century. Without animal testing, we wouldn't have this life-saving treatment for diabetes that benefits millions of humans today.
Whilst I understand and deeply respect your point, I ask you to consider this: If not animals, then what alternative do you propose to ensure the safety and effectiveness of new medical treatments and vaccines?

Criminals if you want to use living beings so much, animals are innocent living beings, criminals are not
@9GXT4L4 5mos5MO
That's a massive violation to the 8th amendment. While I do support animal rights, and definitely think it should be limited and heavily regulated to life saving research, preferably as non-invasive as possible, subjecting any human to that kind of treatment is completely contrary to the right to not be subject to cruel and unusual punishment. Not only that, but who do you think this would really affect? Murderers, rapists, and pedophiles; or wrongly convicted individuals and minorities? Personally it depresses me that an animal had to suffer for us to progress in life saving care. But… Read more

It's not a sacrifice they choose to make - the stats alone that animal testing does not prove useful in human efficacy, ON TOP of the fact that the animals are completely innocent and should not be being exploited, should be enough for anyone to agree animal testing needs to stop in all forms.
@9BC2YCK1yr1Y
It is such a cruel practice to test our products on animals. Even Hitler banned it.
@9FMM2V57mos7MO
These disease or health problems that have been founded using animal testing, some examples are the polio vaccine, or insulin for diabetes.
@9GBB2JQ6mos6MO
95% of the new drugs that we test on animals are shown to be safe on animals are ineffective and have failed when going into a human trial. Animals are forced to endure painful experiments that sometimes don't even help.
@9FN936S7mos7MO
How would humans feel if some other living being used them cruelly for their own testing? It is not right to subject animals to pain and suffering, no matter the possible results from it.
@9GT364FPeace and Freedom6mos6MO
without animal testing, many vaccines and cures to deadly diseases would still be rampant and testing, unknown drugs on humans is cruel.
@9GSW7SP6mos6MO
Testing on animals is highly inhumane and immoral, and i personally think that if they want to make sure a product works for humans, they should test it on humans, and not animals. Besides, what if the animals have a different reaction than a human would, what happens when the animal turns out fine from these test, then someone uses the product and gets sick, or in the case of vaccines, dies from it.
@9GQPDKD6mos6MO
According to Harvard professor and American Enterprise Institute visiting scholar Dr. Thomas Stossell, “More than 80 percent of new drug approvals originate from work solely performed in private companies.” Clearly, industry is a better judge of what is worthwhile research than Big Government.
@9F8TGH48mos8MO
We already use animals for so many things in our lives: food, clothing, furniture, decoration, even just hunting for fun. We don't need to be testing makeup products on monkeys who aren't going to wear makeup. It's inhumane and cruel and definately should be terminated.
