YES! Animal experimentation should be illegal.
Animals have a heart and a mind just like people do. They are
capable of feeling love and pain, happiness and sorrow. But,
because they are not able to speak to us and tell us how they feel
many people forget that they are capable of having these feelings.
That is why they are often hurt or neglected. And most of the
experiments, are not effective on humans like they are on animals,
for example: chocolate is highly poisionos to dogs, but we don't
die when we eat chocolate.

If animal abuse is illegal wouldn't animal testing be illegal?
No but it should be because testing on any animal is physical
abuse. The animal has no choice in it and that should be
illegal.
I have seen awful pictures of Chimps with lipstick, Elephants

Asked in Laboratory Testing
What do you gain with animal experimentation?
You find out if something is safe or not and you find out the
effectiveness of something. But animal experimentation is not fool
proof and sometimes all the hard work of testing is usless. I think
that we should stop animal experimentation and stick with good old
natural things instead of trying to find out if chemicals are
safe.

Asked in Animal Life
Is animal experimentation right or wrong?
I believe that animal experimentation is the right thing to do
and it is needed. Without it we would not find any cures for
diseases and many lives will be lost. So i personally agree with
it.
Animal experimentation is arguable morally, but it is undeniable
that it saves lives physically so if it's wrong please tell that to
the people you might condemn.
Asked in Animal Rights and Abuse
Why should animal cruelty be illegal?
Animal cruelty should be illegal because cruelty to a child is
illegal. Animals actually have the same rights as children. Sort of
like a contract that you were born with that everyone in the world
has automatically signed, protecting you from harm until your an
adult where you can have rights.
Hope this helps. :)
