Animals. We humans are too. Obviously, we need a solution to animal testing. Each and every creature on this earth feels pain and deserves the right to live a natural, full happy life. Although humans need medication and new products, we should NOT test them on any creature. Life is too precious. Humans absolutely do not have the right to hurt an animal or take its life.
Thank you!
Thank you!

Hi friends,
Yes the drugs should be tested on animals only. Because if they were directly tested on human, a huge loss will be there. So they should be tested on animals only. We can know the side affects and can proceed on further. If not on animals, then where should they be tested? Only the animals will have the same system like of human, so the animals were used for testing.

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 don't agree because I think animals have the right to live but on the other hand we need a new medicine to deal with new diseases.
I believe that god created all of thing in world to make a better life for human. But we should use them in a humane way.
I think specialists should try to find a new way to test a new medicine and until that time they have to use animal.

Hello guys.
In my point of view, animals should never be used for testing new drugs and medical procedures because sometimes testing drugs on animals cause death of animals. Animals are living things like us, we do not have any right to play with their lives. I think scientist should discover some another method to test new drugs without hurting others.
Thank you.

Hi guys.
I think animals should be used for testing new medical products but ya great care must be taken while using them to minimize their sufferings as they also have the same emotion as us. Wherever possible other alternatives must be used. I completely do not deny this because itt will be more hurting seeing thousands of people in agony instead of few animals.

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.

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.

No, animals should not be used for research. Why do we consider our own life precious than others? God has created us equally, then how can we even think animals inferior or their life worthless? The true spirit of one cannot accept the life given at the cost of other! Never! But remember that I am talking about true spirit, not a false one.

I think, to test uncertain drugs or any other substance which may cause any harm to any living being, but we can obviously carry out tests on any life if and only their life cannot be saved.
For example, if an animal has an illness which is not possible to recover and live more, then we can easily carry out tests on animals or even humans.
