only intentions are to dissect you until you are nothing. While animal testing may help some patients with cancer and other illnesses, many ads make false claims about the effectiveness of it; ultimately justifying and prolonging the merciless acts upon myriad of innocent animals. Such an ad stood out to me while scrolling on my Pinterest feed. It was published in 2009 by the Animal Research Development Organization. Animal testing may have helped the little boy, Caleb, in the ad with cancer,…

Animals Testing Did you know that all across the world each year, millions of animals are being put under harsh and inhumane circumstances in order to have potentially harmful products tested on them? How is it ethical that on estimate, 26 million animals are used for scientific and commercial testing? Many people have a preconceived idea that only “useless” animal are being tested on such as rats, but animals like dogs and cats are being tested on as well. In 2010, Minnesota used a total of…

are all anti animal testing places. There are countries that are bearly looking into animal testing and realizing how cruel and unfair it is to test on animals and make them suffer. Places like the U.S, New Zealand, and Australia are all places late to act for animals and are in fact very popular hunting grounds. This means that people have license to kill and hunt not just for survival but for fun and entertainment. These countries are trying to set a ban for animal testing but haven’t really…

Since the beginning of the world’s earliest scientists, animals have been used for testing. Though most people probably do not know, infamous scientists such as Aristotle and Erasistratus used live animals to test various experiments, and since then the testing has not stopped. “About 20 million animals are experimented on and killed annually, three-fourths for medical purposes and the rest to test various products. An estimated eight million are used in painful experiments. Reports show that at…

cosmetology from a moral philosophical framework. Is animal testing universally unethical or contingent on circumstance? In particular, is animal testing considered unethical in the cosmetics industry? If so, how do corporate entities, governments, and citizens justify the production and purchase of cosmetic products tested on animals? Are corporations inherently wicked, are the psychopathic, innately selfish, competitive beings? Cosmetic animal testing appears to satisfy a lower form of…

Psychology. Piotrowski identified the Rorschach Ink Blot Test, sentence completion methods, and the Thematic Apperception Test as some examples of projective assessments in the field of Psychology (Piotrowski, 2015). The author shares how projective testing and assessment methods have been an accepted approach in Psychology for the past 75 years.

research for centuries. Greek physician-scientists, such as Aristotle, (384 – 322 BC) and Erasistratus, (304 – 258 BC), performed experiments on living animals. An Arab physician in twelfth century Spain, Ibn Zuhr, introduced animal testing as an experimental method for testing surgical procedures before applying them to human patients (Hajar). Recently, however, the science and medical community has come under fire for these experiments. Many have criticized the inhumane way these animals are…

in a way the animals were for the experiment. The importance of animal testing not only comes from understanding diseases but also for drug developments. The importance of testing on animals was re-enforced during the twentieth century following several adverse effects caused by not doing so. An example is the drug thalidomide, a painkiller for morning sickness that was marketed in late the 1950s. Because no animal testing was done, the company was unaware of the severe side effects of this…

Animal Testing Millions of animals die every day as a result to animal testing. Nancy Day said “ animals have been used in research for more than two thousand years”(p.37). Day also said” Galen, who was born in A.D. 129, is considered the founder of experimental physiology”(p.37). Day also said “it takes an average of seven years to test a new drug before the FDA can approve it for the general public”(p.31).Day also said ”critics of animal experimentation say that animals get different forms of…

Animal Experimentation Animal Experimentation has been around since the 1960s. Animal testing has been a routine part of getting shampoos, lotions, lipsticks and many other products on the shelves. There is a public misconception that rats and mice are the only animals being used in experimentation and that the experiments are protected through the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, or the Code of Practice, but we know that neither of these are true. Animal experimentation is a cruel…
