: DO YOU BELIVE ANIMAL TESTINTG IS FOR THE BETTER OR FOR THE WORSE?? IN OTHER WORDS, IS ANIMAL TESTING GOOD OR BAD, IT'S A YES OR NO QUESTION. THANKS TO ALL WHO REPLY, IT'S FOR MY SCHOOL PROJECT.

Well, Veronica, on balance I'd say animal testing is for the worse. But how can such a big concept be brought down to just yes or no? What kind of animal testing? There's a huge difference between dripping chemicals in a rabbit's eyes to test eyeliner and using the same rabbit to test, say, a certain type of insulin which may help keep people with diabetes alive.

If this is your school project, I encourage you not to stick to a yes/no survey, but to pick a couple of specific examples of animal testing and go deeper.
