Think about all the tests that scientists do with animals. Most people think that it is good because it's better them rather than us right? WRONG! Animals must stop being used for commercial and scientific testing. Animal testing is cruel and harsh. Think about it, most experiments involving animals flaw and waste the lives of animals. And since animals do not have the same DNA as humans the tests that they do with them don't prove a lot even if they succeed. If you don't believe me yet. Don't worry, I’m not done. First of all the things they do to animals while testing is cruel. Nearly every day animals are blinded,shocked,poisoned,starved etc. According to the PETA organization in an article called cruelty to animals in laboratories, Animals

92% of tests on animals fail and kill the animals in it. According to another article from the PETA organization called Experiments on Animals: Overview,Each year, more than 100 million animals—including mice, rats, frogs, dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, monkeys, fish, and birds—are killed in U.S. laboratories for biology lessons, medical training, curiosity-driven experimentation, and chemical, drug, food, and cosmetics testing. Finally, animals do not have the same DNA as humans, so it does not entirely mean the product is safe if the test succeeds. Paul Furlong, Professor of Clinical Neuroimaging at Aston University (UK), states that "it's very hard to create an animal model that even equates closely to what we're trying to achieve in the human" . Animal tests on the arthritis drug Vioxx showed that it had a protective effect on the hearts of mice, yet the drug went on to cause more than 27,000 heart attacks and sudden cardiac deaths before being pulled from the market. In conclusion, animal testing needs to STOP! Animal testing is harmful and is inhumane. Most tests fail and kill many animals. Animals are not the same as humans, so if the test on the animal works, it might not work on a human. Are you with me now, i thought you would
