Animals are used for
research in a variety of settings, including tests to determine the safety of
drugs, cosmetics, and other substances.
In fact, animal testing
allow researchers to develop new medication and treatments advancing the field of
medicine and enhancing the health of society. For example drugs that are used
to treat cancer and HIV infection, diabetes…are resulted from tests performed
on animals. Also, by the help of animals, researchers are able to test the
safety of medications and other substances in which human have regular content.
However, when using
animals in testing, a significant number are harmed or die as a result of
experiments and testing. Also, many of the substances that are used on animal
subjects never receive approval for human use or consumption. Further, using
animals in research is expensive, because they require care and treatment
beside the cost of the experiment. I'd like to ask about these animals' rights,
shouldn't be protected and treated.
I think that animals are
living creatures too, they see the world and feel things similar way to us, and they deserve rights.
Fatima, I think that animals have a right but before asking about animals right we should ask about rights of labor children, homeless children and children who are suffering from starvation.
