Do you think Animal Testing is right?

[Meree.]

Well, i'm subscribed to PETA, and i hate anything to do with Animal Cruelty. I wish people would open their eyes to what happens behind closed doors and refuse to purchase products from companies that test on animals. I will only use products which are not tested on animals, and i think everyone should follow suit. Besides most test results gained from testing on animals are invalid, due to the differences between our body and theirs. Like the graze test, which involves pouring a liquid such as perfume or shampoo into a rabbits eye then leaving it to see the outcome to determine wether it is safe or not for human use, even though a rabbits eye is so different in many ways than a human eye deeming the results possibly nonsense.

Yeah I totally agree with you there. I hate anything to do with hurting animals in any way. And yes, about the shampoo I do agree! It could really hurt the rabbit if it ends up being a unsafe chemical. Aswell as that, they're hurting the animals with no care whatsoever, and also they KNOW its gonna be different on animals too humans, yet they still test it on the animals and put them through all that pain....

Ok let me put it to you: you had life threatening cancer

Your one hope is that they test this new drug.

They can't because animals can't be tested on, what are you going to do?

With the technology nowadays, they can do tests which are far more reliable, safe and correct than testing on animals.

So they can test my cancer drug on a computer.

At first I was completely against it.
But now I can reason why they do it, It's like, Like if there there was a new make up/medicine. What is the product had something wrong with it? I'd rather lose an animal than a person anyday.

I'm afraid not all of them are that simple, some do need living things, whether they be animals or humans

I know that wasn't aimed at me but, I would rather die if I'm honest, yes people can think that's weird and that but I'm very strongly against animal testing, I think it's completely wrong in all circumstances.

I'm sorry but I don't think anyone would say they'd rather die than let a bunny cure thousands or millions of people.

If you're not letting them test it on animals, it may not seem like it, but you could be killing hundreds/thousands.

For the record they could try testing it via technology like stated above. It may not work but it's worth a try. Aswell as that I think what Keri said is what she believes. Therefore you shouldn't try & correct a well intitled opinion.

[Keri?!]

Well that is truly how I feel, I feel it's exactly the same as killing a human being; it has feelings, it has a life..no matter what it is, a animal or not.
You can think that it's ridiculous that I think that, but if torturing a animal is okay, then it's the same thing as torturing a human, when it doesn't even need to happen in the first place.
I'm also a vegetarian, I haven't eaten meat now for 6 years.
So I'm also against killing animals, this links with it obviously.
