cheaper for them, more animals available for wider spread of reactions. no human rights to worry about
It is accepted so far it is justifiable by performing this animal testing for scientific research for mankind benefit.
40 per cent of companies are still using animal testing
hey well www.ppaww.org has stuff about animal testing and petitoosn and a list of companies that test =)
In Europe there is a total ban on cosmetic animal testing. Most US companies that do not test on animals list on the package as cruelty free.
According to PETA.com Vichy does use animal testing for some of its products. And it is good to keep in mind that Vichy is owned by L'Oréal Paris, one of the biggest animal testing companies on the planet.
Companies use animal testing because of the very few similarities between human and animal tissue and DNA. They think that by testing on animals before using the drug/make-up etc on humans they can diminish the possibility of the humans getting any side-effects.
No, it is not. Animal testing is when companies and factories perform tests on animals using their products to test the results. Animal dissection is like an autopsy. It is when they open up the animal to see what is inside.
There are many harmful effects of animal testing. Namely, animals experience prolonged suffering and death. Also, companies continue to participate in animal testing as long as people fail to speak out against it.
Animals testing for the benefit of humans is unreliable because animals do not have the exact same anatomy and body chemistry as humans. Therefore, any results derived from animal testing may not apply to humans.
Not many companies use animal testing these days, although you'll find plenty of them overseas.
It's mainly about the benefits and disbenefits of animal testing. There are disbenefits, such as loss of money and harassing the animals. On the other hand, the benefit is research help on humans, companies' products, and medicine for humans. So the controversy is this I guess, is it worth to harass animals and lose money for helping research on humans, companies' products, and medicine for humans even though animals are dying.
almost all countries test on animals,more then 130 companies in the world test on animal
This question is not known. People all over the world try and protect animal testing. Some people believe that it is right to test animals for our benefit.
Animal testing is allowed, per Islam religion, if it is performed through scientific research that is done mankind benefit and for reducing human suffering due to illness.
If the animal survives the first attempt of death the company does to it, then they keep trying to kill it until it dies. I hate animal testing and am disgusted at how it is still legal and REQUIRED and how companies have the nerve to do it.
Yes, many animal byproducts are used within cosmetics and animals are routinely tested upon - even if a company claims not to support animal testing, they may use research based on animal testing by other companies or be owned by a parent company who use animal testing. Proctor & Gamble are the worst for this, they not only use animal testing but have supported grossly unethical animal testing and outright torment animals - aka Huntington Life Sciences.
Animal experimentation is controversial; when it is done, it is usually best if the animals experience minimal to no pain and that the results of the animal testing have a clear and important benefit to the health and wellbeing of human beings beyond cosmetic purposes. Many people boycott products and companies that make (excessive or any) use of animal testing.
Animal testing is not good.
animal testing is NOT okay
Animal testing has stop bad effects of what ever is being tested to affect humans. However, it is the animal tested on that gets these effects so it is unfair to them, but it's the only way to test things on the closest thing to human.
Animal testing is were the FDA and other companies test cosmetics and medicines on animals to test their effectivness and to see if they cause any illness or poisoning.
To allow for medical progress in order to benefit human nature. It may be evil, but a necessary evil
Yes. According to several sites that list companies that do and do not do animal testing, Marc Jacobs is listed on the "DO TEST" list.
Animal testing isn't right.
I'm not sure animal testing really affects anything. I know that some companies test their products on animals, like deodorant, perfume, makeup etc. They do that to make sure it is safe to use on humans.It is inhumane!!! They need to stop. These companies test on animals. Please stop buying their products until they stop testing.:
