Does anyone know any facts about Animal Testing?
It is inaccurate- it is not only the nonhuman animals that suffer from animal testing. Humans suffer as well. Cures are often dismissed, delayed, or wrong due to the differences between humans and animals. 92% of things found safe/effective in animals are found unsafe and ineffective in humans. Half that make it to the market are later recalled. Humans die because of animal testing. It is expensive- more accurate tests like human cell cultures are far less expensive. The only people who really support animal testing are those that make money from it. It is unethical- animals are gassed, poisoned, given diseases, crowded, beaten, starved, injured and so forth in labs, often for reasons of mere interest. Animals are often taken from their wild habitats and forced into small cages where they will spend their lives being tested on until they are killed. Plenty of doctors have spoken out against animal testing as well: http://
