Some people argue that all experimentation on animals is bad and should be outlawed. However, others believe that important scientific discoveries can be made from animal experiments. Can experimentation on animals be justified? Are there any alternatives?

Some people argue that all experimentation on animals is bad and should be outlawed. However, others believe that important scientific discoveries can be made from animal experiments. Can experimentation on animals be justified? Are there any alternatives?  

A  fierce debate has ensued about experimenting on animals  because some believe that is illegal  and animals are also living beings, but some disagree. The following paragraphs will discuss this matter and share plausible conclusions and explore other  ways of this matter .

To start with, experimenting on animals it’s very harmful and painful for them. For example, as per PETA, many animals meet painful death every single year, they are injected with chemicals and substances  every day, sometimes twice or thrice in a day, and are locked in glass boxes with a dim light because this is part of their experiment. Consequently, thousands perish [die] because of these harmful experiments.  

However, experimenting on animals is not bad because they test only those species who are in huge numbers, like  monkeys, rats, dogs, guinea pigs, and so on. Every year, these animals are killed in huge numbers because they are considered their pests, and many are shot and given poison by farmers and city authorities. A study conducted by University of New South Wales, compared the number of animals killed by  farmers and those killed by  laboratories, and found that 10,000 to 1. 

Similarly,  this system is very important because there is no other way of testing medicines and surgical procedures. Several medicines tested on animals like polio,covid, and many more, have been helping to  protect human lives from disease. Moreover, many surgical procedures like liver transplant,heart transplant, brain surgery have been tested on monkeys and pigs, and then used on humans.

In conclusion, these tests are justified because there are no other ways of testing, and also the animals being used are otherwise killed in big numbers.  this should continue new technologies found that can replace it.

 Many believe that testing done on animals is wrong, so it should be banned; however, others say that for great scientific discoveries these undertakings should be continued. I fail to subscribe to the notion of proscribing such clinical trials, for these hold critical importance for society. 

To commence with, there are umpteen great discoveries being made only due to the research done on animals. To corroborate, the invention of great medicines such as paracetamol, savlon, and crocin, to name a few, has only become possible after these were first tried on rats. In an interview, Aditya Kapoor, a doctor, at AIIMS Delhi, asserted that before the launch of any new medicine its effectiveness is checked on mice, and only after that it is released for human consumption.  

Similarly, several cosmetics like cleanser, toner, foundation, concealer, and many more, have their implications checked on animals first, if the test is successful, only then it is recommended for use by consumers. On top of that, the trials are not done on endangered species, as many are aware about their significance, it is only practiced on monkeys and rodents, among others, that are treated as pests and killed or poisoned in millions every year.  Furthermore, by virtue of being the supreme inhabitants, no experiments can be done on humans; the only option left is animals. 

Despite the advancement in state-of-the-art tools, there are not any other options available which can aid in discoveries. The researchers practicing at labs have failed to find any other option to try their experiment.

In conclusion, the trials done on animals are justified as there are no other alternatives available. Moreover, these experiments resulted in the launchment of several medicines, cosmetics which have proved to do wonders in human life.

Clinical trials on animals have long roused bitter controversies, with some deriding this practice, deeming it cruel, and demanding prohibition, whereas others claim that such research remains essential for major scientific and medical breakthroughs. I believe in the absence of more credible options, such procedures must continue.  

Those opposing treat such endeavors with indignation, and argue that it is unethical to harm living creatures for human benefit: subjecting them to pain, fear and distress, toxic substances, and surgeries, or behavioural studies raises moral concerns. Similarly, many maintain that humans are not entitled to exploit animals simply because they cannot defend themselves. 

Nevertheless, supporters of this system vehemently defend such activities; they are pivotal to the development of life-saving medicines and understanding diseases. Historically, several breakthroughs - such as vaccines for polio and rabies - were achieved through animal studies. Researchers argue that before prescribing drugs to humans, evaluating their safety on animals is critical, for this can help circumvent severe side effects, justifying controlled and regulated use of this method for the sake of mankind.  

Although the opponents suggest that advancements in technology have introduced several state-of-the-art alternatives: laboratory testing using human cells, computer simulations, and artificial intelligence to predict toxicity and drug interactions, these  machine-based models are prone  to producing unpredictable outcomes that fail to clearly predict the impact of simulation tested substances  on the human  body, making it quite risky to release such products for human consumption, upholding the need for continuation of such exploration.   

Overall, while animal experimentation raises serious ethical concerns, it can still be deemed warranted  in cases where the research is essential for medical progress, but lacks any plausible alternatives. Nonetheless, continued investment in modern scientific methods should be encouraged so that dependence on animal testing can be gradually mitigated.

Justified. Why? 

  • The clinical trials conducted on animals has allowed us to ensure that the products and procedures are safe for human consumption. 
  • Many medicines and surgical processes perfected have helped save billions of lives   
  • Humans being deemed as superior creatures cannot be used as subjects
  • None,  the pharma companies, would want lawsuits on them 
  • The creatures being used for tests are not exotic and are otherwise also killed in huge numbers every year as they  considered as pests 

Not. Yes? 

  • Humans have not created animals but nature, so they do not have right to inflict poor on the poor beings  

Alternatives 


The debate surrounding conducting clinical trials on animals is the most heated in the healthcare and cosmetics sectors. While this practice is deemed as acceptable, some raise concerns, which though can be overlooked in the favor of public good at large. 

Discovery of numerous vaccines, medicines, surgical procedures, and so on, requires a trial on living beings in order to determine their impact on physiological functions, and outcomes, so it is justified to experiment on animals, as without this, medicines, procedure, or even cosmetics cannot be deemed fit for human consumption. Several ailments inflicting kidney, brain and heart, and terminal illnesses: cancer, facing humans have been treated using remedies and procedures perfected through this arrangement, saving  billions of lives that  would have been lost to preventable disease.

Moreover, there is little room for objections regarding these settings; the fauna used to carry out research is not exotic, or nearing extinction, but those such as monkeys and rodents that are considered to be a menace, and culled in millions by farmers, animal control boards and other agencies  through either poisoning or being shot. 

As far as  exploring alternatives is concerned, there are few alternatives, except using cloned human tissue to evaluate the effectiveness of  medical intervention on humans, which is yet to prove its credentials by virtue of being in its rudimentary stage, and needs more research to realise its potential. However, till then the  invaluable human life cannot be left at its own device to fend for itself against ailments and diseases. 

Overall, objections raised by the critics of animal testing fail to hold  ground in the face of the need to provide effective safeguards against illnesses, infections and disabilities, and medical conditions. This must continue until a potent alternative to this system is discovered.

Alternatives 

Several animal activists are in favor of declaring clinical trials on animals as illegal by virtue of being cruel, but the scientific community upholds this practice and feels this is the only hope for many ailing in the current paradigm. The following paragraphs shall critically analyze the matter and explore the alternatives.

To begin with, those objecting to such undertakings assert that it is unethical and inhuman to subject poor beings who cannot voice their consent or dissent, to pain and suffering for the sake of mankind. Nature has created everyone equal, and thus, no one enjoys the privilege of causing harm to others, in order to develop and improve their own lifestyles while those involved in/undergoing painful clinical procedures are exposed to unbearable sufferings, distortions and agony. However, those vouching for these endeavors are good to point that the animals used in such experiments, such as monkey, rodents and guinea pig are not some exotic species that are nearing extinction, but are regarded as pests and a menace by farmers, store keepers, factory owners, and even municipalities and are either shot or poisoned in millions every year across the world. Therefore, there is nothing wrong in using these creatures for conducting tests. Similarly, currently, there is hardly any other reliable alternative to supersede this process even though tissue cloning is being developed, but it is a long and pain-staking procedure which may eons take to materialize. Meanwhile, life of humans cannot be jeopardized by trying medicine, products and routine on them, or affording them unproven formulations. Overall, disputes aside, in my opinion conducting experiments on animals is completely acceptable until plausible alternatives are discovered since such undertakings have helped save millions of lives, which otherwise would be lost to preventable diseases, and continued wreaking havoc on mankind.

Intro 1 - 


There is a tug of war going on between animal rights activists and the scientific community over the need to carry out clinical procedures on animals. While the former vehemently protest against this practice, the latter are in its favor. The following paragraphs shall discuss this matter critically and explore alternatives.


Intro 2- 


The debate surrounding testing on animals in the scientific domain is the most heated. On the one hand, an army of animal activists want this practice to be completely proscribed; on the other, the scientific community lends its support to this arrangement citing the reason that currently there are few options available to replace this.


Intro 3- 


Euthanasia, or mercy killing, has been a controversial issue for many years. Although many people are strongly against such a practice, there is a growing demand to have it legalised. How far do you agree with euthanasia being made legal?
