Although using animal testing for medical research still occurs today and some may agree or disagree with the policy, using animals for testing is cruel and inhumane, alternative methods replace the need for test subjects, and the results are often unreliable since they are not the same as human beings.
Many scientist and proponents of animal testing declare that the animals are being treated humanely but according to a government survey, “Across the EU, 93% of research is conducted on animals which are not counted under the US Animal Welfare Act.” These animals are especially vulnerable to mistreatment and abuse without the protection of the AWA.
