Treatment and Interventions

testing because animal testing is cruel and inhumane, animals make poor test subjects, and animals’ rights are violated. I. Animals should be used for scientific or commercial testing. A.Animal testing has contributed to many life saving cures and treatments, animals have short life cycles, and religious traditions allow humans to be dominant over animals. B.The California Biomedical Research Association states that nearly every medical breakthrough in the last 100 years has resulted…

I believe that animals for research should be banned. The use of animals for research should not happen because animals feel everything just like humans do. In the U.S. labs, over 100 million animals are burned, crippled, poisoned, and abused every year. More than 92% of experimental drugs that are safe and effective in animals fail in human clinical trials because they are either too dangerous or it just does not work. Israel and India have already banned animal testing for cosmetics, and the…

Testing cosmetics on animals is one of the most common methods animals are experimented on in laboratories. The United States does not require their cosmetic products be tested on animals before use. In contrast, countries like China are known for their strict policy of constructing tests on cosmetics using animals before they allow the products into the country. Some tests that are carried out in the experimentations are, chemicals rubbed onto shaved skin, or dripped into the eye of the animal…

Critiques say that,“solitary confinement is akin to torture, violating both international law and the prohibition of cruel and unusual punishment.” Also, very similar words, "No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment,” appear in Article 5 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on December 10, 1948. “Many become floridly psychotic, or so agitated that they engage in awful, grotesque…

Sense vs. Sensibility Making choices is fundamental to our lives. When we are making decisions, the biggest paradox may be the conflict between the sense and the sensibility. It has been over two hundred years since Jane Austen wrote the novel Sense and Sensibility, yet to our surprise nothing has really changed. We still struggle to make the moral and ethical choices that people have struggled with over the years. In “Letter from Birmingham Jail”, Martin Luther King Jr. broke unjust laws and…

Admittedly, when conducting experiments to test a treatment or to prove something, it usually involves testing on a subject. These subjects are usually animals that were bought by researchers to conduct their experiments. Some of this testing can be done on humans or on animals, but this usually leads to a debate on whether or not ethical to test on animals. This can also referred as an ethical dilemma, which occurs when someone is not able to make a decision due to moral conflicts. Furthermore,…

until the animal dies during the procedure or is too weak to survive any longer. Animal testing is a major topic which has been an ongoing debate for many years. The opposing side may argue that animal testing is necessary for discovering cures and treatments for diseases. Opponents may also claim animals feel little to no pain. The people who favor animal testing believe animals do not have rights, which allows experiments to be…

older relatives doing and as a result my mother took away our pets. Leaving me and my brothers wondering why and know we know. Animal abuse is a horrible act against nature and I believe that abuse or cruelty against animals should get the same treatment that a person would get if they abused a human. Now in my closing, even though animals are legally our property, do not treat them as that. Treat them like you would treat your brother, sister, mother, father, or anyone or anything that you…

Like and appreciate animals? Animals are used for protection, food, clothing, transportation, and many other uses. To end animal abuse everyone has to act as one and help support the Animal Liberation movement created by Peter Singer (O’Neil10). Animals should be treated like humans because of the cases and increase of abuse even though there are acts to stop it. The abuse of animals include beating, no feeding, not having any shelter or even leaving them to die once they get too old (O’Neil7).…

Humans argue that animals are not capable of grasping moral concepts, such as rights. However, humans are animals that do have rights. People have fought and continue to fight to give a voice to animals. “We are a predator of predators,” said the study’s lead author, Chris Darimont, Hakai-Raincoast professor at the University of Victoria in British Columbia and science director for the Raincoast Conservation Foundation,” reported by EcoWatch “Humans: The Worst Predator on the Planet”.
