Testing cosmetics on animals

Animal testing is the use of animals in an experiment with the goal of controlling biological aspects of the creature. Animal testing is a controversial topic because it can be considered humanely immoral yet scientifically necessary at the same time. When using products that are developed using the testing of animals it is necessary to understand the process that the animals undergo. Is a bottle of shampoo worth the lives of 480 testing rabbits?

The Controversy With Animal Testing Animal testing is more of a problem than some believe. Some people believe it is okay to use animals as their test subjects, while others have been trying to convince people that there are alternatives to using animals that will work just as well. “It’s not testing cosmetics. It’s trying to save my life” (Kopp and Camosy 48) said Eileen Youtie who is fighting cancer. Eileen is paying over $30,000 so tests can be done on an animal before the doctors use the…

However, animals are being exploited by research companies and cosmetics facilities all cross the…

of different animals stuck inside cold, lonely cages in testing facilities waiting for a chance to roam free and escape their pain filled lives. The pointless suffering animals go through during animal testing is cruel, dangerous, and often ineffective. Imagine your life as a prisoner, trapped inside a cage your whole life even though you have committed no crime.

With over one hundred million animals killed in testing every year in the United States alone, alternative methods should begin being ushered in. Every day animals are being harmed in the name of “forward progress,” while every day alternative methods are being discovered and explored. As scientific data is gathered on alternative methods, testing on animals becomes more and more outdated. Animal testing is outdated and should not be considered helpful anymore because it is cruel, pointless, and…
