High-stakes testing

But what is the exact meaning of animal testing? Whether it is called animal testing, animal experimentation or animal research, it refers to the experimentation or research carried out on animals. Hajar (2011, p. 42) stated that early Greek physician-scientists, such as Aristotle, (384 – 322 BC) and Erasistratus…

Animals are born in the wild. They do not deserve to be locked in a cage like prisoners. It is not right. They do not do anything wrong. So why should humans hunt them and put them in cages and make others look at it? Animals are god’s creatures just like us. Imagine being locked up in a small cage, not getting enough food to eat and living in a dirty and poisonous place. I bet anyone cannot live like that for a day. It’s very wrong. Even it’s better for a person to live in a prison than animals…

Animal Rights Jeremy Bentham, the author of The Principle of The Morals and Legistation said “The question is not, “Can they reason?” nor, “Can they talk?” but “Can they suffer?””. According to the Collins English Dictionary - Complete & Unabridged 10th Edition (2015), retrieved from Dictionary.com website, animal rights is defined as the freedom of animals to live free from human abusing them and taking advantage of their privileges of having a well taken cared life. As the world is…

Mohandas Gandhi once said, “Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need, but not every man’s greed.” The needs of animals and our world would be fulfilled much more efficiently if humans were not abusing and completely disregarding all of the illustrious accomplishments they have been trying to acquire. With that being said, animals and the planet are a grave part of human’s success and their needs should undoubtedly be put before those of humans. To begin, it is obvious that the human…

Mice are mice. Dogs are dogs. Humans are humans. This should be simple to understand, yet, we live in a world with such a high amount of people believing that cruel, painful testing on innocent animals will have the same outcome for people. The truth is that 95% of the tests that pass through animals proceed to fail in the human body. And why would that be? The two of us are such different species with different body structures and brain functions; therefore, we aren’t correspondent at all. In…

(New York: Oxford University Press, 1998), 825, http://www.questia.com/read/88356604/ethics-history-theory-and-contemporary-issues.)

How else does one learn about another species? “Every advance in medicine--every new drug, new operation, new therapy of any kind--must sooner or later be tried on a living being for the first time. That trial, controlled or…

banned due to a few incidents and murder, but it also very foolish for people to be banned from owning exotic animals due to incidents and deaths. So why do people find it ok that exotics should be banned? Although the price could be a bit pricey or high in worth, depending on who you are, it is your choice on whether or not you waste the money and you should obviously do a background check or research to see if it would be the smartest thing or not. Some people like to live life to the fullest…
