in my opinion i think its terrible to test on poor animals , but in a way there are two sides to it
it is obviously much better then having to test on a human, as it could harm them
but animals could get hurt too !
Animals should be used for scientific research because their use can save the lives of humans. This type of testing makes it much easier to create medications that are safe for humans.
The animals that went into space were usually monkeys or dogs. The Russians used dogs and the United States used monkeys for most of the animal flights into space. Fruit flies were the first living things used for space flight testing.
Animals require much the same conditions for life as humans. It was not known if humans could survive in space, so animals were first used because they were considered expendable.
Same airway damage for chronic exposure as with humans. Animals are used to investigate internal effects, and assumed to be like it would be for humans.
This plant is not generally used for food by humans or animals. It has been noted that rabbits will eat pachysandra.
After testing and approval, then they can be used on humans.
Because it is believed that a human life is more important than an animal's life. People don't think of animals feeling pain, testing on humans seems worse than testing on animals. Most of the products are tested on on humans after they have been tested on animals.
Animals are used because scientists want to spare humans. Most animals have similar genes to humans so animals give the same reaction humans would if the experiments were being tested on the humans. Using animals is a way to help keep the human population up and still be able to find cures for those everyday diseases.
Yes and No. Animals are used in pyrogen testing. Rabbits are generally used in pyrogen testing.
Animal testing helps to cure diseases and to discover new cures and vaccines for both, animals AND humans. It is totally normal that humans use animals to test on because we use nature for our own health. However, animal testing used for cosmetics is completely cruel and unnecessary.

Testing people, but many go against that even though the animals don't deserve to be tested on like they are as important as a piece of nasty trash.
Because their bodies are like humans. They have similar structures to us, so if they can survive, so can we.
rats and humans respond similarily to ingesting many medications/chemicals/etc, but pigs are the most physiologically similar to humans
Approximately 12 .1 million animals are used a year for testing.
If you think about it humans are animals it is just that we are the only kind of animal that can stand on two feet and we can communicate with each other so testing on animals is almost like testing on one of your friends or a member of your family I love animals and i don't like seeing them being hurt so please help the cause to stop animal testing :)
I guess it is a matter of opinion. In my opinion it is wrong and that is because animals are living breathing creatures too, they cry out in pain and they suffer just as humans do. If the shoe were on the other foot and we were the ones being tortured... tested on by some higher power I'm sure any human would think that were wrong.
