Scientific experimentation on animals should be strongly encouraged and not outlawed because it is a necessary requirement to further human knowledge; it finds diseases so they can be cured, as well as animals are useful for testing drugs to better human health. Animal testing has been greatly beneficial for the world in providing new treatments and cures for diseases. Animal testing has played a vital role in nearly every medical career in the last decade. There is not currently a different and better way of finding cures and treatments besides scientific experimentation. Animal experimentation is quite complicated, but “it’s all quite exciting, you think, as you travel the bumpy road to the lab. A huge sacrifice, but a chance to expand the shores of human knowledge”. (Gill) Animal testing is useful and necessary for the world to keep innovating and improving. Mice are readily available to scientists: “the availability of genetically …show more content…
The animals that the scientists use are bred only for the experiments “to ensure consistent data; thus, these living beings are essentially technological products brought into existence for the purpose of their scientific use” (Animal experimentation), and not taken from nature or the wild. With current technologies, animal experimentation may come out of play, but it is predicted that animal experimentation cannot be replicated exactly. Other methods to replace animal testing “include[s] computer modeling, micro-dosing, and MRI scanning, [that] will eventually replace the use of animals in medical research […] however, animal testing does provide significant benefits that are not easily replicated. While alternative technologies will reduce the reliance on animals for testing, they cannot replace animal testing all together.” (Animal
