60 - 100 million.
NO!!!! all animal testing and is wrong! We all must stop using products that have been tested on animals. Just stop animal testing. use natural producst. Ask someone at stores where you buy your stuff were the natural/products not tested on animals! Medicine is slightly acceptable but cosmetic testing is down right wrong.
not many animals are getting extinct because of animal testing but its isstill killing those poor animals what have they ever done to deserve this kind of treatment this kind of punishment !!!i think that animals are better than than humans they are not heartless like they are not cruel like us !!!we think that we are more important than animals but we are not we think that we are cleverer than animals but we are SO NOT !!!WE ARE WORSE WORSE WORSE THAN ANYONE !!!!The population in mice due to animal testing has went down alot
There is the Animal Welfare Act which has many laws. A few include: a veterinarian must be provided for the animals, the dogs must be exercised, and if an animal is in so much stress they must put it down.
There are pro's and cons to animal testing. It can help discover life saving treatments for humans and other animals. However, it is sometimes said that animal testing is inhumane because the animals are in pain, or are not taken care of. However, there are government standards on research labs. The animals do not feel pain, and even though they may die eventually, they often live as long as a normal household pet.
about 3 million animals
I am totally against the fact that people test cosmetic products, shampoo etc. on animals, because we don't need those things - the are not essential for survival so why should we let animals die or be injured for something we don't need? In a number cases animal testing has helped with medical issues and vaccines, so that is acceptable as long as it is done in a humane way. As a vegetarian, I would argue that far more animals are killed for meat than for testing, which I think is wrong. All in all, I think it is acceptable to test medicines on animals, but not unnecessary items.
No. Animal testing is a necessary part of research. Animal testing has advanced our technology and medicine. Practicaly every medical breakthrough in recent years has been due to research with animals. For example, treatments for TB, AIDS/HIV, smallpox, polio, cancer, and other devestating illnesses could only have come up (ethically) as a result of animal testing. Additionally, not only do humans benefit, but so do animals. Veterinarian treatments (i.e. treatments for animals) are largely also the result of animal testing. Research on animals has also uncovered new ways on how to treat better treat animals. Had animal testing not existed, it is very unlikely that our healthcare and well-being would be as advanced as it is today. When working with animals, scientists are expected to follow a code of ethics. Included in this code are the 3Rs: Replacement: Scientists must exhaust alternative means to get the results without testing on the animals themselves. For example, instead of testing on animals, the answers can be found from archival video clips of nature, or from computer modeling. In other words, animal testing must only done as a last resort. Reduction: If testing on animals is necessary, scientists must use as few animals as possible. Refinement: When animal testing is necessary, scientists must refine their methods taken to eliminate any unnecessary suffering caused to the subjects. For example, if an animal must be opened to view something, the animal must be anaesthized, and if it is necessary to kill the animal, it must be put down in a humane manner. Unfortunately, there are indeed occasions where some researchers inflict unnecessary cruelty on animals, such as the Silver Spring monkey case. However, to use this to brand all animal testing as cruel is like using workplace abuse cases to brand all businessness as evil. No respectable scientist is motivated by sadism or desire to cause harm to animals. Remember, scientists are just as human as any other person on earth, and sometimes they make mistakes that have consequences. This is no more flawed than a person trying to rescue and free animals, only to unknowingly and unintentionally kill them. It is lamentable that animals are subject through this, but it is a sacrifice that is necessary for the better.
make people aware that its happening Start a petition, rescue animals from the shelter! volunteer at local animal shelters and animal hospitals. you could also tell people that I'll hunt them down if they do anything like animal cruelty and testing
People feel a compassion for animals. They are worried that the animals are getting hurt or they are not being treated humanely. They care about the animals' welfare. They feel that animals should not be made sick or hurt or killed for medical research that benefits people.
We dont test on ourselves cause basically we are worth more than animals + i dont see no one volunteering so animal testing it is
Ant.
helping sick animals, putting animals down, giving the animal medicine, giving the animal a diet
