Hi, I think the test should carry on with the animals. If emotionally we are considering it wrong then half of the people wouldn't have survived. We live in an era where every day a new disease is founded and to cure them medicine is required and we can only have medicine if it successfully tested. If not on animals then where to test it?

According to me we can not spoil any one's life for save our life it is wrong. We should give the respect to everyone who's live in the world because every one can think for our self but everyone can not think about other's self if you want to become a good so you should thing about other's self.

Drugs should be tested on animals because we eat animals every day and its not a big loss to lose them but to lose a human is a great loss and due to drug testing on animals human lives can be saved.

- Why animals have to pay with their lives our human troubles?
- Is the animal an object? Why do we use their life's instead of us?
- Is an ethical activity to do research on animal?
- Christ try to leave a message when he freed animals. The message was Animals have to live in freedom. Is research on animals in contrast with Christ did?
- How do we know that companies are not exploiting animals without our knowledge, just for make more money?
- What about empathy?, what happens if we were the animals who have to be tested by other specie?

We cannot say "yes or no". There was two side. We believe that man is the best in God's creature. So we can use other animals for his own use. By using animals for testing new drugs and medicine helps the man to know if it has any other side effect. We believe that God create all other animals and plants for us. So we can use it our needs. If we have the power we use it anyway.
The other side is all the living things including man were the creatures of the God. We cannot have the right to kill any other animals. All has its own feelings.

Good evening friends.
In my point of view killing animals is not cruel thing. Medicines are made and must be tested with some living organism so that it would not affect humans. Diseases like cancer, TB. Etc are prevented with the help of these tested drugs. So it is happiest thing in our lives. I have read few above comments some are criticizing of killing animals. I will Obey with this but for eg. , if we go restaurant, we are getting non-veg and having it. That time you will not feel it as animal?
So I conclude, All are creatures only but for some creatures they have their own fulfillment in life. Every creature is meant for something.

I think living things have right to live. But humans are more important than other creatures, and people are at the top of the creatures. So animals can be used for medical research when there is not another way, but it is much better to find alternatives for medical research on animals I am sure it is possible through technology development.

Scientists should be allowed to test on animals because as we try experiments on animals we can know many things and we are gaining knowledge and we can help the society. We can tell that animals are helping society. Example freedom fighters who fought for India became greater as they fought for us animals are giving their lives for the society.

Yes, experiments should be done on animals but keeping all points in mind that there must be at least a low loss of their life. An experiment on animals prior to human can save lots of people life. And sometimes medicines discovered by animals may also work for animals too because they also have human-like diseases.

We have to ask ourselves the question, if it is justified to test new drugs on human beings or not. The answer to this question will answer today's topic.
