: Niki, have you ever taken Advil? Tylonol? Any other drug? Even Antibiotics? I have a dog and a cat, yet I understand the importance of animal testing. None of those products would be available w/out animal testing. The animals used in labs, for the most part, are bred specifically to be used for experimentation. The key to understanding the diseases that kill humans, is to experiment on animals. Computer models will never work!!

So animals are bred for labs, and what? Does this make them less feeling, less capable of suffering, less like your dog or cat? Humans were once bred to be slaves; did that make it alright?

While we may benefit in some ways from animal testing, it is still cruel. Evil means do not justify good ends.
