How do labs who animal test get the animals to test on them?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Laboratories that conduct animal testing typically obtain animals from various sources, and the methods can vary depending on the type of research and the regulations in place. Here are some common ways in which animals are acquired for testing:

Breeding Programs: Some research institutions and companies maintain their own breeding colonies of specific species for experimental purposes. These colonies are often carefully managed to ensure genetic consistency and control over variables.

Commercial Breeders: Many laboratories purchase animals from commercial breeders that specialize in breeding and supplying animals for research purposes. These breeders adhere to strict guidelines and regulations regarding the treatment and care of the animals.

Animal Shelters: Some laboratories may obtain animals from animal shelters. In some cases, these animals may be surplus from shelters or unwanted pets, and they are repurposed for research purposes. However, the use of shelter animals in research is controversial, and ethical considerations are important.

Wild-Caught Animals: For certain studies, researchers may capture wild animals for testing. However, this approach is less common due to concerns about disrupting natural ecosystems and the potential for stress and harm to the animals.

Transgenic Animals: In some cases, genetically modified animals are used for specific research purposes. These animals are often created through genetic engineering techniques to carry specific traits or conditions relevant to the research.

It's important to note that the use of animals in research is subject to strict ethical guidelines and regulations in many countries. Researchers are required to follow protocols designed to minimize the number of animals used, reduce their suffering, and adhere to principles of the 3Rs: Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement.

Additionally, researchers must obtain approval from institutional animal care and use committees (IACUCs) or similar regulatory bodies before conducting experiments involving animals. These committees review research proposals to ensure compliance with ethical standards and animal welfare regulations.

In the UK, the RSPCA get 1 million reports of cruelty per year. Unfortunately animal cruelty is all too common, in homes as well as in farming and in labs. There is a terrible problem online with cruelty groups and sharing animal abuse content which must be stopped!

Only 100,000 of those cases are ever solved. Fewer still are prosecuted.

What can you do to end animal cruelty?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You can donate money to the RSPCA. Some say that the RSPCA does absolutely nothing, but, in fact, it provides a helpful home to any stray creature. The more you donate, the more you are helping feed, cure and save these poor animals. With everyone's help, we soon might not have thousands of animals flooding into shelters each day.

What are puppy and kitty mills?

User Avatar

Asked by Crystal

A animal mill is a business that breeds animals--usually pedigreed cats and dogs--for sale. The critical difference between a responsible breeder is that the animals are too closely related and/or reproduce too often. Profit is given priority over the well-being of the animals. This causes certain characteristics to be dominant to the detriment of the animal. One example is German Shepards that have bad hips.
