I think animals should not be tested for new drugs and medical procedures because it is very dangerous to animals. If want to experiment so scientist should do those experiments on terrorist and punishment of death by law.

Hello friends, this is Sampath Kumar.
What I am saying that experimenting on animals is too bad why because soo many animals are living without food some times it will be. So harming animals is too bad for the purpose of drugs and there are so many scientists and labs are there for research on drugs. So, friends what I am saying is absolutely right on my side, thank you.

I think animals should not be used for testing because we know that life is a gift which is given by nature so only nature have right to play with their lives. We do not have any rights to play with their lives.

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.

According to my Point of view,
It is not that Justifiable to misuse animals for such tests. Every creature on this earth has Right to live their life. There is no security of Test getting succeed, sometimes it may Get failed. And in the other way, we can't test such drugs on human beings also. There is no other way to test the drugs, So it very much difficult to oppose the Test conducted on animals.

I think it's ok to use animals to test products, etc, but we should do so in a sensible way.
Also, I think many people are ill-informed on this platform - when we talk about using animals to test drugs, it is not done in a cruel way that you may imagine it to be.
Usually, the animals are sedated and given the best possible care.
There are many restrictions in place which make sure that the animals are not misused and to make sure any pain is taken away as much as possible.
Without animal testing, we would never know if drugs, etc. Would be safe.
There is virtually no method that is as accurate an animal testing.
That's all. Thanks.

In my view, it is actually unpleasant to test on animals. But on the other way if I think the experiment on that couple of animals will save the lives of millions of people, who can help in the lead away to there country. The scientists should find out some alternatives to experiments on helpless animals.

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.
