Is the use of animals for scientific purposes
humane?
Saving the animals from our laps will secure the protection of our humanity
...
The man continued using animals, as humans’
ultimate right
...
Rats, dogs, monkeys, and other types of animals had been destroyed in laps
under the name of scientific researching (CBRA, 2016)
...
Advocates of the animal experiments had been arguing that
these acts are considered to be ethical and essential for the survival of the humans,
experiments can’t be conducted over humans, and that the utilitarianism ideology
ensured its ethicality, based on the cost-benefit analysis
...

Campaigners of the animal experiments would argue that conducting
experiments over animals is essential for the survival of the humans
...
On the other hand, it can be suggested that the animal

In
addition, it can be suggested that the similarity between the biology of the animals and
humans would ensure the effectiveness of the same treatment for both of them
...
For instance, the same
experiments can’t be conducted over humans, which may lead to the negative
consequences upon people
...
At the same time, the same processes are being
conducted by humans, during sacrificing animals for food, clothes, and other
materialistic benefits (NuffieldBioEthics, 2005)
...
For the food, animals are being sacrificed, while there is
no emotional or physical pain that can be witnessed
...
In addition, the animals’ experiments can be considered to be leading to the
researchers’ disgraced from their humanity, as they tend to force animals to suffer and
elimination of their freedom during the processes
...

cure for the entire humans, who are considered to be more productive and larger in
number than the small sample that would be researched
...
Simply, the end justifies
the mean (Ritskes-Hoitinga, Zurlo, Clark, & Griffin, 2014)
...
Throughout the animals’ experiments, there are different unethical
actions that are being conducted by the researchers
...
Secondly, the theory of the utilitarianism had
been reversed by the theory of deontology, which stated that the end doesn’t justify the
mean, as the end and the means should be moral and ethical
...
For instance, the less usefulness of the species
doesn’t make them enforced to be sacrificed for the sake of any other species
...

To conclude, it should be ensured that the animals are considered to be
benefiting the humans in variety of means, which may be deployed for many purposes,
rather the scientific experiments
...
The
advancements and growth of technology that had been witnessed ensure that the

heir experiments and researches, without the harming of any animal or non-human
animals
...
Regardless the power that the nature had been providing to the humans over
the entire creatures, the power comes with responsibility to protect and serve not to
manipulate and destroy
