RE: The need for using animals as experimental subjects, and why releasing them into the wild is a terrible idea!

in #science8 years ago

While I do agree with animal rights and that they should not be tortured or treated poorly, animal testing is a very important part of today's society. Even something as simple as a bottle of shampoo is always tested on animals in order to see if there is any problems with it. People who think animal testing is wrong, would you rather just have a product be released to the public without it being tested?

Exactly, it is a safety step that unfortunately can only be bypassed in very exceptional situations. The important part then is to keep the treatment of animals as ethical and reduced as possible while still permitting significant results. Thanks for your comment, @rageddybullet!
