“Seeing the bigger picture opens your eyes to what is the truth” (Wadada Leo Smith). People need to start thinking of the variety of ways that animal testing can assist this environment. It can cure certain illnesses, control the amount of species overpopulation, and it can help boost people’s confidence levels because of the creation of makeup. Overall, animal experimentation will have a positive effect on this society.
Animal testings’ main purpose is to help develop different types of medical drugs and procedures. Animal testing has been used for biomedical research as early as the 300 B.C. Aristotle and Erasistratus used animals to perform procedures. They used this process for the same reason that they use it today. Statistics from the Cancer Research UK Foundation shows that survival from cancer has doubled in the last 40 years due to lots of research and testing. In fact, more

due to illness, and the rat population would be extremely high. Without animal testing, there wouldn’t be any way to find out how someone would react to a certain type of drug or procedure (“Animal Testing” pg. 1). A lot of people still think that animal experimentation is bad because it is killing the poor animals, when the reality is, they are doing it for the benefit of the people. Animal experimentation has a lot of effects on this society and environment. Another reason of why animal testing is good for the environment is because it decreases the overpopulation of certain animals. If there is a certain type of species that is becoming overpopulated, then the animal testing workers can do tests on the animals to see if they are a reliable way to find out possible new information (Hanlon para. 3). This is a great way to maintain a stable environment and society. Although there are many great outcomes of animal testing, some will
