animal exploitation
DESCRIPTION
My Presentation on Animal ExperimentationTRANSCRIPT
Death is much better than the Sufferings & Torture which these poor creatures endure. They are supposed to live a happy life just like us but are caught and stripped of their independence in a life which is no better than HELL.
Many animals are used in scientific and medical research. They often undergo cruel methods of testing and suffer greatly as a result.
Animal experimentation is both cruel and unnecessary and humans have no right to put innocent animals through such torture.
VIVISECTIONDRUG TESTINGDISEASE RESEARCHTOXICOLOGYSPACE RESEARCHCLONING
Vivisection is the practice of experimenting on live animals and it is a term to which many scientists object.In schools and colleges, frogs are the most commonly dissected animals, although other species, such as cats and dogs, are also used.
Numerous drugs passed as safe on animals caused side effects in humans
Skin RashesNausea & DiarrhoeaBlindnessBirth DefectsFatal Liver Failure
The advent of genetic technologies has made possible all sorts of new and horrific acts of animal exploitation, from cloning sheep to creating mutant and hybrid creatures with
no dignity or quality of life at all. We should end animal experimentation before things
get even worse. THIS WORLD IS NOT OURS.WE HAVE NO RIGHT
TO ALTER THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT THROUGH SUCH HORRIFIC DEEDS.Do You want
to be like me???
IS This Our Future???!!!!
Two of the most common animal safety tests are eye irritancy and lethal dose tests. In eye irritancy tests, chemicals are dripped into the eyes of albino rabbits. The animals are usually immobilised in stocks from which only their heads protrude, and their eyelids are held open with clips. Often, they receive no anaesthesia during the tests; some rabbits break their backs as they struggle to escape the pain.
After placing the chemicals in the rabbits' eyes, laboratory technicians record the damage to the eye tissue, which can include inflamed irises, ulceration, bleeding, massive deterioration and blindness
In acute toxicity, or lethal dose, tests, increasing amounts of detergent, eye shadow and other products are force-fed to rats, mice, rabbits, guinea pigs and other animals until a certain percentage of them are poisoned to death. The widely used lethal dose 50 (LD50) test continues until at least 50 percent of the animals die, which usually takes several weeks.
Experimenters observe the animals' reactions to the chemicals-everything from convulsions, laboured breathing, diarrhoea, emaciation and skin eruptions to bleeding from the eyes, nose or mouth. Like eye irritancy tests, lethal dose tests are unreliable at best.
In 1957,Laika became the first to be launched into space, paving the way for man.
Enos, the space chimp before insertion into the Mercury-Atlas 5 capsule in 1961.
DISEASE RESEARCH
Vivisectors use animals in an attempt to find cures for human disease
Mice are given cancers by being injected with tumor cells
In arthritis research, chickens have chemicals injected into their joints to induce pain and inflammation
Heart attacks are triggered in dogs by tying off the hearts main blood supply.
..
This is not how humans This is not how humans become sick nor do become sick nor do artificially created artificially created diseases progress in the diseases progress in the same ways as in humans.same ways as in humans.
The Fact is that all animals react differently to different substances.
For example:- - Lemon juice kills cats.
- Parsley kills parrots.- Penicillin kills guinea-pigs.- Strychnine is harmless to monkeys.- Arsenic is harmless to sheep.- Insulin causes malfunctions in chickens, rabbit and mice.- Aspirin causes birth defect in monkeys.- Thalidomide is safe in guinea pigs.- Opren kills humans but not monkeys.
Even Even Cigarettes !!!!!Cigarettes !!!!!
For decades, and up to this day, animal experimenters have been testing cigarettes and their components on animals. They have forced primates, dogs, rabbits, and rats to breathe concentrated cigarette smoke to determine what its effects are. However, after all these decades of research, their results continue to be "inconclusive" because some species suffer negative effects while others do not experience any health problems.

Stats from Home Office,UK
An estimated 83% of substances are metabolized by rats in a different way to humans.
Less than 2% of human illnesses (1.16%) are ever seen in animals. 95% of drugs passed by animal tests are immediately discarded
as useless or dangerous to humans.According to the former scientific executive of Huntingdon Life
Sciences, animal tests and human results agree only '5%-25% of the time'.
9% of anaesthetized animals, intended to recover, die.Rats are only 37% effective in identifying what causes cancer to
humans. Flipping a coin would be more accurate.
We are told that they are less intelligent and important and so hurting them is acceptable.
Isn't it wrong to cause deliberate suffering & deathAnimals experience pain, fear & lonelinessInside labs, animals have their hearts & other vital organs
deliberately damaged.They are poisoned to death with toxic chemicals and subjected
to radiation burns.Brain damaged monkeys are forced to perform repetitive
tasks in order to gain a reward of food and water.Animals have been shot and exposed to nerve gases and
given addictive drugs.Those who do not die during the experiment itself are invariably
killed so that their bodies can be examined.
Animal research has become a habit and an entire industry has been built around it.
Scientists & Researchers who have built a career promoting the value of animal studies, find it difficult to reverse their positions.
Scientists who probably do not support animal experimentation may be unwilling to speak out publicly.
After all……………… Time, money, and resources devoted to these
experiments could have gone to human-based research. Clinical studiesVitro researchAutopsiesPost-marketing drug Micro dosingSurveillanceComputer modelingEpidemiologyGenetic research pose no hazard to humans and provide accurate
results.
Importantly, animal experiments have exhausted resources that could have been dedicated to educating the public about health hazards and health maintenance, therein diminishing the incidence of disease that require treatment.
