CONS Animals can suffer psychologically as
well… These animals don’t get to live life how
they normally would in their natural habitat
Some animals are used for research that is curiosity driven and not for a research that will lead to a cure or treatment to a disease

Quotes from Medical Experts
"...animal research is essential to tackling major 21st century health problems such as cancer and heart disease. Without the use of animals it would be impossible, in many cases, to develop drugs or any sort of medical treatment."
Professor Sir George Radda

Animal experiments in biomedical research have allowed us to accomplish many things n human medicine. With these experiments we have achieved a longer life span, a decreased infant mortality, effective treatments for many diseases, and also the quality of life has enhanced in general (American Media Association 76‐75)

What are your thoughts on this?
Should humans continue to be allowed to use animal experimentation?
Are there things that would directly affect you if particular drugs were never invented?
Are experts taking advantage? Is it too much of a good thing?
While there are numerous pros and cons of animal testing, the ethical aspect overshadows both of them, which means that emotion may be the ultimate factor in whether a person believes the benefits of animal testing outweigh the problems associated with the practice.

Today there are many treatments and cures to diseases – we are centuries ahead considering the fact animal experimentation was used
The life of humans as we know it has improved and keeps on improving
As good as this all sounds there is a bad side to it
