Examine the arguments in favour and against animal experiments, and come to a conclusion on this issue
The testing of medicines and cosmetics on animals has been a controversial issue for ages, rallying celebrities and relying on graphic images to sway peoples’ opinions. The opponents cite animal cruelty as the main reason why testing should be banned, while the proponents point to the significant progress in modern medicine that has, at least in part, relied on animal testing.
There is no doubt that many of the practices in use in animal experiments are cruel. Dripping nail polish into a rabbit’s eye to establish the dose where the animal is blinded is not only cruel,

In summary, it can be concluded that there are valid arguments both for and against animal experiments. A differentiated view weighs the gains against the costs.
