| Torillian said: I can understand the thought, but some research simply requires that animals be tested because there really isn't any other way to learn these things, and they are important. I totally agree that animals should not be sacrificed for frivolous things such as cosmetic research or the next boner pill, but when it comes to real diseases that people need medication to live through then I can't fault researchers for killing mice in order to do their research. So much of our general knowledge about Biology is from animal testing, it really is necessary even not for medical testing but also just for general knowledge experiments. |
i think i have nothing more to add, i'd sign this post totally. Animal testing isnt something we should be proud of, but its necessary.
@te; if someone in your family gets sick, and is healed by a method that had to be tested on animals beforehand to be as riskfree for humans as possible, i am pretty much sure you wouldnt say no because some mice had to die in order to save that person.
