The disadvantages are:

  • It could harm the animals
  • People might not want to test on animals so as a business you could lose staff
  • animals could become dangerous
  • animal testing could be run as a business so more intent on making money than actually caring for the animals
  • Animals could be mistreated

The biggest disadvantage of animal testing is the harm, pain and confinement of the animal.

The biggest disadvantage of animal testing is that the animals used for testing are not humans and any results derived from animal testing may or may not be useful to humans. I can be a matter of the animals suffering for nothing.

Another important thing to keep in mind about animal testing is the frivolous nature of the substances tested on animals. Most animal testing is not for the purpose of evaluating lifesaving drugs but for outright commercial purposes, such as cosmetics, food additives to make something keep its puffiness or enhance its color, or an ingredient added to a product to enable marketing to call it new and improved when in fact it doesn't work any better it's just a new color or texture.
