Response Questions-testing cosmetics on animals

1. It’s quite easy to get an emotional response out of people when we talk about how animals are treated. This is also true of animal testing for medical research. However, many would say that animal testing has led to many medical breakthroughs that have dramatically reduced human suffering around the world. After reading the two articles above, what do you think about medical testing? Is it justified and necessary?

The medical testing is necessary thing because of we don’t have any test before using the medical, we will have potential risk because the researchers have the science advances to GUESS any side effect on the human body. But the human bodies are verities that are unique. You will do not know the side effect when using the medical.


3. What do you think of animal testing on cosmetics? Does it matter to you what kind of animals are used (whether it’s mice, rabbits, dogs, primates, ect?). Remember that without animal testing, cosmetics may end up much more expensive and possibly have greater risk to humans.

I think even the animal testing on cosmetics is very not mercy for animal, but we will have potential risk when we don’t have any test before using the cosmetics. The endanger animals should not be the testing animals. If we still want to test some cosmetics, we should use the animals that are not endangered as mice.
