    Bailey, Matthew R. “It's Time to End Ineffective And Cruel Animal Testing.” Wall Street Journal, 09 Oct 2017, PP. 16A. Matthew R. Bailey, in his newspaper article “It's Time to End Ineffective And Cruel Animal Testing” (2017), the author argues that testing drugs on animals is ineffective and claims animal lovers favor research that saves animals lives instead of killing them. In order for Bailey to get his point across, he states “Testing drugs on animals is notoriously ineffective. Not only do laboratory animals suffer from confinement and research procedures, but because they present different biologies and physiologies, different species (and even breeds within a species) respond differently to various substances.…

    People, especially scientists, are hurting innocent animals that did no harm to anyone. Animal testing shouldn't be allowed to happen because animals are getting hurt, they are not protected, and animals get mistreated. One reason that animal testing shouldn’t be allowed is because animals are getting hurt. For instance, the Draize eye test involves rabbits having their eyelids clipped open for as long as multiple days so that they don’t blink the product being tested away. Popular cosmetic brands like L'oreal, Lancome, Estee Lauder, and S.C. Johnson are used on animals.…

    In the 1900’s people around the globe started testing their drugs and other such tests on animals. These tests would be done on animals to test if their product would be dangerous to humans and to see the results.

    In the United States alone over one hundred million animals are poisoned, crippled, abused, and killed in laboratories each year. There is only one federal law prohibiting the inhumane treatment of laboratory animals and this law is null to ninety-five percent of the animals being tested.
