Do you believe in animal research? can you give me some reasons? Do you think it is acceptable for scientists to perform research on animals like fruit flies, rats, mice, and rabbits?

My opion on animal research is that it is a good thing and they should do it. They want people to adopt animals every day because "millions" are being killed every day. Instead of killing them off they should use there lives to make the lives of other animals of the future better. I dont think that that is a bad thing because even humans want there lives to make the world better in their wake. Why are animals any different?

Yes, we need animal research in order to develop safe drugs and treatments. They are also necessary in understanding how the body performs and responds to different stimuli. However, I do believe that any animal should be treated humanely, and should be made as comfortable as possible. We should only do test that cannot be dine any other way, or that have no human benefit.

This is more of an opinion question... But what it all boils down to is either being us or them... Take it from there.

They should be able to keep doing it.
But I would hope that they could get by with doing it less.
