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?

Experimentation on

animals

paved the way for the safer administration of

vaccines

to

humans

. Others view

this

as an inhumane act and should be banned from practice.

However

, others still support

this

because of its milestone achievements in scientific development. In

this

essay, I will explain why the perceived unethical practice of

animals

should be continued and why there are no other alternatives. Important discoveries have been made from successful experiments with pharmaceutical

vaccines

on vertebrates.

Animals

,

for instance

, were used for these 'trial and error' of developed

vaccines

specifically, rabbits and monkeys.

Although

the probability of these vertebrates surviving

this

project is inevitable, scientists still resort to

this

only way of testing their developed

vaccines

. Historically, an outbreak of killer German measles was only prevented when a vaccine was created, which paved the way for continued immunization in several communities to end

this

virus. Those who disapprove of the practices on

animals

have no better solution for the possible alternatives. Some argue that

this

should be an illegal act because the procedure is no different than killing living creatures with no consent.

However

, I don't believe that clinical procedures are any different,

for instance

, rabbits were used for these trials than the risk of performing it on

humans

because of the uncertainties of these methods, which have helped reduce casualties in mankind. At the moment, there are no other alternatives that scientists can test out their created

vaccines

. Indeed, these are living creatures with feelings but our attempt to save humanity will always be greater. In conclusion, these practices are considered reliable and safer ways of testing newly developed discoveries

such

as

vaccines

which only sole purpose is to immunize the population globally.

However

, others may argue that it is unethical to subject

animals

to these methods of trials because they are still living creatures just like

humans

who have emotions, I do believe that in our current situation, we wouldn't risk

humans

over

animals

for the 'trial and error' methods.
