Essay / Animal testing should be banned - 1000
Animals are used in research to develop new drugs and for scientists to test the safety of drugs. This animal experiment is called vivisection. Research is being conducted at universities, medical schools, and even primary and elementary schools as well as commercial facilities that provide animal experiments to industry. (British Parliament) Additionally, animals are also used in cosmetic testing, toxicological testing, “defense research” and “xenotransplantation”. Around the world, large numbers of animals are sentenced to life in a laboratory cage and forced to experience loneliness and pain. In addition to scientists causing pain, most drugs that succeed in animals fail in humans. It is called bad science. Above all, animals have the right not to be harmed, even if the animal protection law does not provide them with even minimal protection. The law does not consider it necessary to resort to current alternatives to animals, even if they are available. Animal testing should be banned due to animal rights, ethical issues, alternative methods, and the unreliability of human test results. First of all, animal testing should be banned in order to protect animal rights. In other words, experiments on them violate animal rights. Animals and humans are similar in many ways. For starters, they have similar levels of biological complexity. They are both aware of their existence and both make conscious choices. Tom Regan, professor of philosophy at North Carolina State University, points out that "animals have a fundamental moral right to respectful treatment. This inherent value is not respected when animals are reduced to being mere tools in a scientific experiment."
