some people think that using animals for experimentation purpose is cruel, but other people think that it is necessary for the development of science. Discuss both view and your opinion.

A portion of the population believes that the usage of

animals

for scientific advancement is essential

while

some think it is vile and barbaric to use them for experiments. In my opinion,

although

using

animals

can help create breakthroughs in the field of science, I believe it is extremely cruel to do so on innocent

animals

.

This

essay will discuss both sides and provide a concluding view.

To begin

with, those who support

this

notion have cited several reasons for

this

.

Firstly

, there is a misconception that

animals

can not feel emotions similar to

humans

.

Furthermore

, in some

animals

, their DNA is close to

humans

which makes them a great source of findings that discover a cure for various illnesses.

For example

, most lab experiments are done on mice, which have the closest DNA pattern to

humans

,

hence

producing accurate results. For these reasons, they believe that it is the most convenient way for science to improve the world by providing solutions to every problem.

However

, many disagree and feel that conducting experiments on

animals

is cruel and unacceptable and I agree with

this

.

Animals

are sentient beings and they feel excruciating pain much like

humans

when they are exposed to

such

torture for the sake of new discoveries. Many

animals

are exceptionally intelligent yet are still treated like mere tools by mankind. A recent study has found that pigs have a similar intelligence level as a 5-year-old child and possess high problem-solving skills.

Moreover

, the brutal test conducted on

animals

may end up with detrimental results which would even cost the lives of these creatures. In conclusion, the use of

animals

for testing helps the lives of

humans

and it is not fair for the

animals

to endure pain and suffering for that. I believe it is more humane to find alternatives for

such

purposes rather than instilling pain in those innocent beings.
