Stop Animal Experimentation Animal experimentation is animal cruelty! Animal experimentation is everywhere, we need to stop it before the US goes into a deeper debt and most animals are extinct! But, with the US spending billions of dollars for annual animal testing it makes matters even worse. Also, many animal experiments have failed in human tests. So many animals are being tortured for scientists to test on them. We must put a stop animal experimentation before it’s too late!
First of all, the USA spends $16 Billion annually for animal testing at taxpayers’ expense and is subject to massive waste and mismanagement of taxpayers’ dollars. Much of this is supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), which allocates 40% of its annual research budget to animal experiments, (https://speakingofresearch.com/2017/05/25/anima...). This money could be going to fix roads or getting alarm systems for schools. The USA should not spend $16 Billion for animal testing. Animal testing is cruel and inhumane.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) have noticed that 95% of all drugs that are shown to be safe and effective in animal tests fail in human trials because they don't work or are dangerous, (https://www.peta.org/issues/animals-used-for-ex...). This shows that animal tests are pointless if 95% of all animal tests fail with human tests. So why keep experimenting if they constantly don't work or are dangerous to humans? People are so enthused with experimenting new ideas that when the ideas don't work they want to try again over and over, but the worst is yet to
