Absolutely. Animal product testing is unnecessarily cruel and generally not required by law. In 2007 the U.S. National Academy of Sciences called for a shift away from animal toxicology tests towards other testing methods. Over 500 US companies now are "cruelty free" and have stopped or have never tested on animals.

Does animal testings in zoos harm the animals?

It depends on the testing, the animal, the protocol and the zoo. Some tests do hurt the animal (like drawing blood once a week to determine a baseline biochemical profile) but other tests do not (such as presenting a memory test with a food reward to an elephant). Overall, zoos are committed to improving the welfare and health of the animals in their care and zoos are a major source of contributions to information and conservation efforts in the wild. There is animal testing that inevitably results in pain to the animal; this is minimized and eliminated where possible.


What is the science behind animal testing?

Stage 1: Human Cells - Early tests are done on human cells grown in a laboratory. Scientists try out different concentrations of a possible new drug. They test it on different types of body cells with the disease. These tests check how well the chemical works against the disease. They also give data about how safe the drug is for cells. Stage 2: Animal Tests - If the drug passes tests on human cells, it is tried on animals. Animal trials are carried out to make sure the drug works as well in whole animals as it does on cells grown in the laboratory. Stage 3: Clinical Tests - If the drug passes the animal trials, then it can be tested on people, these tests are called clinical trials or human trials. They give scientists more data about the effectiveness and safety of the drug
