Animals have been used in tests for over 2,000 years. Animal experimentation began around the 2nd century. Mice, rabbits, rabbits, reptiles, guinea pigs and other animals are all victims of animal testing. Companies like Almay, Revlon, Opi, and Wet n' Wild are some of the companies that do not test on animals. According to the RSPCA website, it is estimated that more than 100 million animals are used in experiments around the world each year. Scientists say animal testing is necessary for a variety of things. Others say there is no other way for scientists to achieve their scientific goals (RSPCA). It is cruel to experiment on animals even if scientists say they cannot find another way to achieve their scientific goals. Animals basically live miserable and terrifying lives. Some scientists say that animals do not suffer during the experiment, it depends on the type of chemical used. Animals can experience “mild,” “moderate,” or severe suffering. (RSPCA). Miguel Nicolelis of Duke University used a monkey to build a brain implant that would allow humans to control robotic arms with their thoughts. This is an example of how animals are mistreated and mistreated as a result of the experiments. With information provided by the LoveToKnow website, it is stated that rabbits are shaved and sprayed with products to see how the skin reacts, albino rabbits are tied in a metal cage bed and eye drops are poured to see if the eye irritates or not, furthermore the rabbits are placed in a container full of fumes to then see if they have respiratory problems. After all, cruelty-free companies force animals to go under the radar, just like the world would be if we all did our part and made the change. Animal testing should be eliminated worldwide. If companies don't trust the product enough to sell it, they shouldn't advertise it to the company. Animals should not suffer the pain they experience during animal testing. Over 100 million animals die or suffer every year. It is up to us as individuals to put an end to this problem.---------------------------------------- -- ----------------------------------------Works CitedMakeup. Lovetoknow corp., 2014.
