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.

Please remember the words of writer "all living beings are owners of this earth". We should respect other animals right also. On the other hand we should not turn our face to the latest developments in scientific technologies. So be aware of our act. Not the technology alone makes our ecosystem balanced!.

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.

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.

It is cruel How would you like to be tested on drugs that could be poisonous and kill you or make you feel like being sick? I think its cruel to lock animals up in cages and feed them drugs. If your that desperate to see if the drug is toxic or not you should try the drug yourself.

I think that animals should be tested on. You could just test it on rats. I bet lots of you do not like rats. Rats breed very constantly, so then if you test on them you don't put anybodies lives in danger. Even if you were to kill a rat their would be more rats born in the world.

As breeding is easy, we can breed the animals with the similar functioning of the human system and use a few for experiments. To support this, we even kill and eat animals for our own pleasure which would be better for mankind when experimented. It has already been successful.

I think using animals for test is sometime becomes necessary mostly animal used for testing are mice the point here to be noted is that we are not using them unnecessarily but for test if successful can be helpful for humans & it is for a cause and purpose. Thank you.

We can use animals for testing drugs and medical procedure but we should also consider that we do not harm them anyway and proper care should be taken of them. So basically I think they should not be used for experiment which could cause animals any serious problem.

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!
