Scientists are mostly using the drugs on rabbits and mice. Those two animals are pests. They breed extremely quickly and humans are already killing them off. If they are used for testing drugs they are helping out humanity. Mousetraps, animal and humans are killing the animals but there are still absolutely heaps of them left.

No animal should be used for drug testing, it's cruel. I think they should drugs on people in prison who have the death penalty, so that way if they die, it wouldn't matter.

My opinion is animals should be tested on because when we find the cure to cancer we will use it for all animals and humans so if you think it's cruel how about they take you and do it to you they and you'll be messed up so keep animal testing to save the humans!

Animals shouldn't be used for testing they have the right to live and if we kill them off that means we will be the new test subjects, so let animals live so they can enjoy this beautiful world like we have.

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!

I think animals should be used for testing purpose the reason behind is if we humans can make new drugs for curing more number of disease only then we can save the life of our parents, relatives, and animals obviously. Think smart doesn't be emotional.

If we think that animal should not be treated for testing then just think of our belongings dying in front of us and us humans unable to do anything to save their life. And remember at the time we the humans saves the life of an injured animal lying on the road by taking them to the nearest hospital. We provide food to them at times. We humans love animals that are the only reason we them pets.

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?

I think that testing animals for new drugs are acceptable. If we see it in an emotional manner it is obviously wrong. But we are not living in an era where people would travel on barefoot. We are far away from it. Technology has dominated. We are already adapted to it. So we must be a Roman while we in Rome.

I think it is wrong to test the new medicines on animal because they are also a living being they also the full right to live as we humans have.
