Animal Testing? Seriously
In "reasons we should protect our animals," by Glenn Gordon their are many reasons why animal testing is a no-no. From The Cruelty of Animal Testing, it explains why it shoulndt even exist. It also tells of alternatives to animal testing. Glenn Gordon is right about everything she explained in her article. Someone should stop the madness and start looking foor better ways to do science.
"Granted for rabbits whose eyes are intentionally damaged to serve as a model for 'dry eye' conditions in humans," says StopAnimalPatents.org. Rabbits who have been tested on were badly damaged just so humans can get wet eyes. Seriously. "beagles who were severely sickened and whose lungs were then purposely infected with a mold in order to test new human drugs on them." That's sick.
There are more humane alternatives which don't include hurting a living being. "Corrositex is far more efficient and far less cruel than using an animals skin to do the same thing." Now there you have it, a less cruel and more efficient way to do testings without animals.
