Animals will go through “the infliction of burns and other wound to study the healing process” (Animal Experimentation). In 2010, the US department of Agriculture (USDA) reported that over 97, 000 animals suffered through pain during these experiments. These animals were not give any kind of anesthesia for pain relief. The animals go through many tests in which they are forced to be in pain and
