Should animals be used for medical research? As sources of organs for surgical implants in humans? As sources of food, fur, fat, oils, and other commercially valuable products?.

no i don't think that animals should be used for anything that htey have offer because we can always use something else. we don't need their fur we have heat and other coats. we don't need their meat we have veggitables. So no matter what we use them for we have already replaced it with other things.

Well from my prospective,animals should not be used for medical research except for when its necessary like surgical implants for example. But other then that no i dont think they should.

I think that is so cruel and unusual its harming a helpless animal . Its just cruel how would you feel if you were being tested,poked and probed by ugly humans.

It may seem wrong in the eyes of some but all organisms use eachother in some way. Over experimenting is wrong. But, other than that, if we dont go overboard it should be okay.

Yes I believe that animals should be used for medical research.Yes organs for surgical implants in humans because technology is moving foward and humans can move forward with it.

I dont think that animals should be used for medical research because it is just so wrong to do that to animals that dont understand what is being done to them.

yes i do believe that animals should be tested for medical research. if animals react in a bad way then usually it is not appropriate for humans.

I do not believe that animals should be used for medical research. Why? Well I believe that even with the animals as a test; you will never be completely sure until it is tested on another person.

Using animals for medical research is unethical to a certain extent. We are killingg innocent beings for our own benefit. In my opinion, that makes us an egocentric species as a whole.

Yes but only the ones that are about to be enjected with a shot to be put to death. Instead of killing the dangerous animals they should just be tested on. Well as far as the implants we should just see if it can work first.

I'm kind of on the fence about the subject. I mean in a way its good because by the time the medication is put on the shelf some of the kinks have been worked out. But on the down side its killing off so many animals and that not good for the environment. as for the surgical implants it is actually a good idea, that way people don't have to be put on a waiting list for organs. With the food, fur ,and oil thing i mean thats always been a part of the way the world works. Comments are closed.
