Animal testing has become a growing issue, as more and more animals are being tested and killed in order to enhance human lives. Scientists over the years have used animals as a way to see how humans will react to makeup, food, and many other products. These new products have cost the lives of many animals; what we see in commercials, grocery shops, and malls have all been tested on animals before being given to us. Mars products such as M&Ms, feed their artificial snacks to animals before allowing a human to try it. Although these animal testing’s are being used for our well being, it is also something that has become abusive by most scientists. The truth of the matter is we are willing to risk an animal’s life before risking our own. By…show more content…
By using these animals as test subjects, they find the side effects it may have on humans. However, throughout the years the European Union “has invested nearly 200 million in research” in order to find an alternative to animal testing. They acknowledge that there might not be a full replacement to animal testing, but there could be a partial strategy that can avoid animals from being tested and killed. The European Union seems to acknowledge how abusive these testings’ can be which is why they are trying to figure out an end to them, but other countries such as the U.S. and China are still permitting it because they seem to think that it is for our benefit to do…show more content…

Animal testing was believed to be the closest thing to figuring out whether the product could be used on humans, killing millions of animals in the process. And although it does fall under the criteria of animal abuse, the government over looked it. Today, with the technology and resources there is, other countries can invest in research for other more effective ways to get the same results just like the European Union has done. By doing this, not only will the unnecessary animal killings come to an end. But we will find ourselves in a world where the government is not a hypocrite by allowing animal testing to occur when it should be called animal
