What are the arguments against animal research and testing?
There are many people and organisations who oppose the use of animals in medical research, although most thinkers about animal rights, including famous figures like Peter Singer (who wrote Animal Liberation) do accept that responsible animal research for medical science is acceptable in some circumstances. Most of the arguments for banning all animal research, however, are based on false information or bad science. Go to our Myth and Fact section to see the main arguments.
