Nowadays animal experiments are widely used to develop new medicines and to test the
safety of other products. Some people argue that these experiments should be banned
because it is morally wrong to cause animals to suffer, while others are in favour of
them because of their benefits to humanity.
Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
It is true that medicines and other products are routinely tested
on animals before they are
cleared for human use. While I tend towards the viewpoint
that animal testing is morally wrong,
I would have to support a limited amount of animal experimentation for the development of
medicines.
On the one hand, there are clear ethical arguments against
animal experimentation. To use a
common example of this practice, laboratory mice may be given an illness so that the
effectiveness of a new drug can be measured. Opponents of such research argue that humans
have no right to subject animals to this kind of trauma,
and that the lives of all creatures should
be respected. They believe that the benefits to humans do not justify the suffering
caused, and that scientists should use alternative methods of research.
On the other hand, reliable alternatives to animal experimentation
may not always be available.
Supporters of the use of animals in medical research believe that
a certain amount of suffering on
the part of mice or rats can be justified if human lives are saved.
They argue that opponents of
such research might feel differently if a member of their own families needed a medical
treatment that had been developed through the use of animal experimentation.
Personally, I agree
with the banning of animal testing for non-medical products,
but I feel that it may be a necessary
evil where new drugs and medical procedures are concerned.
In conclusion, it seems to me that it would be wrong to ban
testing on animals for vital medical
research until equally effective alternatives have been developed.
