You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. Write about the following topic: Some people argue that all experimentation on animals is bad and should be outlawed. However, others believe that important scientific discoveries can be made from animal experiments. Can experimentation on animals be justified? Are there any alternatives? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge and experience. Write at least 250 words.

The research industry has advanced in the past decade and now we have cures for many diseases and disorders, that could not have been possible in the

last

century. Some people claim that it is bad to use

animals

for various scientific experiments and that human beings should stop abusing nature.

Although

I acknowledge the fact that sometimes it leads to animal cruelty, I believe that it is important to breed certain

animals

for experiments to reach a scientific breakthrough in a particular field. In the modern world, the current lifestyle of human beings is reported to be a cause of many new diseases, that if not cured, can cause epidemics and pandemics and wipe out a huge section of society.

Due to

this

, many medicines and vaccines are being developed by scientists after long periods of extensive research.

However

, to check if they are safe for human consumption, they are tested on

animals

like rats or monkeys, whose genomes are similar to human beings.

For example

, the covid-19 vaccines were developed in a very short time as the disease was declared an international emergency. Since human testing is not allowed until it reaches a safe level,

animals

have to be used for the same. But at the same time, the government has to make sure that these studies are done legally

as well as

within ethical boundaries.

Furthermore

, there are a few alternatives to these procedures that help in reducing the abuse of

animals

.

For instance
