What is your opinion Perhaps no subject in the moral community is as controversial as animal testing. Animals many people believe merit more humane treatment. When animal-based experiments have long been the centre of criticism I am of the opinion that such experiments are essential to both the well-being of human beings and that of animals. There is little doubt first of all that most of the animal-based experiments are conducted for the development of technology and to date there is little chance of finding satisfying substitutions for animals. Animals arc used mainly because they bear a close resemblance to humans either in behaviour or in cell structure. They respond to external disturbances such as electrical shock nearly in the same manner as humans do. There is much evidence that most of what people know about themselves including pain stress reproduction and nutrition is based on findings of animal-based experiments. Animal testing proves one of the main approaches to predict the risk when drugs or other products are used on humans. Another fact to support animal-based experiment is that animals are not the equivalent of humans and can be used as resources for human purposes. Animals have no capacity to recognise the rights of other species. Nor will they take in consideration the interests of other species. It is possibly one of the main reasons why animals feed on each other. Humans by comparison use animal experimentations not only for their own interests but also for the interests of animals. For example some medical discoveries can be used by veterinary surgeons to give medical care and treatment to sick animals. Despite the justifications given for vivisection researchers have the obligation to reduce animal testing and animal suffering. There is a growing recognition that animal tests are mostly done for
