Just think for a second, if we don’t test on animals what are we going to test on? Of course, you might say that there are alternatives such as cell cultures in a petri dish or computer models that can recreate the function of several organs, but they cannot provide the answers that animal research can. So what will it come to? Testing on humans? In a world where animal testing would have not existed, that same drug that would have killed a rat might actually kill a person. Besides, when it comes medical testing, animals are considered as a better research subject than us. Their lifespan is often shorter than ours, so scientists can study the effects that a drug can have on the long run or across several generations, which would take too long
