Imagine you were thrown in a cage, or beaten up for no real reason at all, or even being forced to do something you do not want to do, only to entertain others. This is how millions of animals are being treated today. It is unacceptable for people to do this to other living creatures, and it should be stopped. Over a million animals are abused and killed every year despite the fact that animal cruelty is a felony which can result in jail time of over 15 years and a $500,000 fine. This type of abuse occurs daily across the world. Saving animals from this kind of cruelty involves educating the public on such issues.
Today I will explain the significance of animal cruelty, as well as several solutions, which can help prevent cases of animal …show more content…
There are scientifically endorsed alternatives that are better than using animals in research.
In 1959, Russell and Burch published The Principles of Humane Experimental
Technique, which introduced the “3Rs” of alternative experimental methods. In addition to clarifying the concepts of humane research and the importance of alternatives, the 3Rs advocate test methods that “refine” animal use by reducing or ending pain or distress in animals, or improving animal well-being;“reduce” animal use by decreasing the number of animals required for testing while still obtaining the testing objectives and“replace” animal use with either non-animal methods or a less developed animal species (for example, replacing a mouse with a fish).Simply these alternatives show a scale of varying degrees of decreased animal use and suffering and have come to be applied, not just in regulatory toxicity testing, but in all areas of research and testing. Replacement methods represent the maingoal of the alternative approach to basic biomedical research, testing, and education—and it is the alternative that NEAVS is committed to realizing. Today, there is a vast range
