Project 3
Animals have been the subject of experimentation to improve our understanding of anatomy and pathology.
Animal experiments are used extensively when developing new medicines
and for testing the safety of certain products.
The use of animals for biomedical research has been severely
criticized by animal rights and protection groups. Similarly, many nations have
established laws to make the practice of animal testing more humane.
There are two positions in animal testing. One is that
animal testing is acceptable if suffering is minimized and there are human
benefits that could not have been achieved using any other means. The
second position considers animal testing unacceptable because it causes
suffering, and the benefits to human beings are either not proven or could be
obtained using other methods.
