Animals are sometimes used in the testing of drugs, vaccines and others mainly to determine the safety of the medical product and its potential damage to the body.
Animal testing allows us to make sure that potential medications are safe and likely to be effective before we test them on humans. Killing animals to save human lives is certainly more ethical than killing them because we enjoy the taste of their flesh, and yet most people including myself are not vegetarians.
What gives humans the right to torture and inflict pain and suffering on innocent animals who have done nothing wrong except to be born and to “be there”. The fact is we don’t have that right although the powers to be have overlooked that fact and do experiment and test on animals. To me this is just morally wrong. We seek solutions for problems to help us so find ways to work this out on humans and given today’s modern technology, find ways not to use living beings. But no animal should ever willingly be subjected to pain and suffering by a human – no matter the cause. It is just demonic and disabolically fiendish.
