What is animal testing? Animal testing is when scientist experiment on animals normally to try and find out cures for diseases such as cancer.

Reasons for animal testing Animal testing has saved thousands of peoples lives. There are people to make sure that the animals are treated well in many testing centres. Its cheap. Insulin used for diabetes is made of sheep. Every antibiotic currently available was firstly tested on animals. Some animals are react more to chemicals, scientists use these animals to see if the chemicals are safe.

Reasons against animal testing Animal testing can hurt animals, most animals are put down after being tested on. Some drugs or medicines tested on animals might have no effect but on humans a large effect. Something's tested on animals can torture them. Animals have rights and should not be tested on.
5
My opinion? I am for animal testing although I believe it should be regulated. I believe some scientists take animal testing too far. Animal testing does save many peoples lives but also kills many animals lives so we should try and prevent the death of the animals we can save. Everyone has their own opinion what is yours?
