  • Essay / Cruel Animal Experiments - 630

    Animals have been used in testing for over 2,000 years. Animal experimentation was established around the second century. Mice, rabbits, reptiles, guinea pigs and other animals are all victims of animal testing. Companies such as Almay, Revlon, Opi and Wet n' Wild are among the companies that do not test on animals. According to the RSPCA website, it is estimated that more than 100 million animals are used in experiments around the world each year. Scientists say that animal testing is necessary for various things. Others say there is no other way for scientists to achieve their scientific goals (RSPCA). It is cruel to experiment on animals even though scientists say they cannot find any other way to achieve their scientific goals. Animals practically live miserable and terrifying lives. Some scientists claim that the animals do not suffer during the experiment, it depends on the type of chemical used. Animals may experience “mild,” “moderate,” or severe suffering. (RSPCA). Miguel Nicolelis of Duke University used a monkey to build a brain implant intended to allow humans to eventually control robotic arms with their thoughts. This is an example of how animals are mistreated and abused due to experiments. With information provided by the LoveToKnow website, it states that the rabbits are shaved and sprayed with products to see how the skin would react, the albino rabbits are tethered in a metal. bed and pour eye drops to see if the eye would be irritating or not, and the rabbits are also placed in a container filled with fumes to see later if they have any breathing problems. After all, cruelty companies force animals to middle of paper......this is what the world would look like if we all did our part and made changes. Animal testing should be eliminated everywhere. If companies don't trust the product enough to sell it, they shouldn't advertise it to society. Animals should not experience the pain they experience in animal testing. More than 100 million animals die or suffer every year. It's up to us as individuals to put an end to this problem.-------------------------------- ------- ------------------------------------------Works citedMakeup. Lovetoknow corp., 2014. Web.
