Animal Testing Kills :: Animal Testing

Hundreds of animals argon dying everyday, and it can be avoided. Animal examen in thousands of companies is eradicateing animals every day. In the essay They Knew But Little , the Kentuckians didnt care much about the environment, and today, there are still too many people that dont see that animal psychometric testing is cruel and unnecessary.Toxicity tests are inconclusive. The Lethal Dose 50% test or LD-50 forces increasing amounts of a test product until half of the test group dies. Animals are fed or injected with cosmetic products... As the dose increases internal organs become blocked, rupture, and cause animals organs to non function and they function on the inside. If the animals are not murdered in the test, they are killed afterwards. Toxicity tests determine the effective toxicity for animals but not humans. They determine the toxic direct for mice, dogs, rabbits, cats and chimpanzees, but not for young or old men and women. Some animals die in the test as a result of the volume of material, not the toxicity of the material. Most important, is the number of animals that suffer unnecessarily why pour drain cleaner down the throats of animals, when humans would never do such a thing?Eye irritancy tests are outdated. Companies use the Draize Test to determine the irritancy of household products and cosmetics including laundry soap, toilet cleaner, perfumes and shampoos. The animal being tested on is tied up so that movement is restricted. They are not given any pain killers or anything. Substances are dripped into the eyes of the animal ( usually rabbits in eye tests), and results are recorded over a period of three to twenty days. Some bad reactions result in irritation or blindness. Rabbits eyes have diaphanous corneas, and are more sensitive to inflammation than humans eyes. That is why it doesnt make sense to test something on an eye that will react differently to a humans.Skin tests are also not very cute... They shave the area that will b e tested on the animal, and then rub the product on the shaved skin. If the skin reacts badly to the product, they break their necks, throw them away, change the product then test it on another animal So you ask... What if the skin doesnt react... They kill the animal anyways because they say that if they tested another product on it, and the product reacted, it could just be reacting to the other product that was tested firstly on the skin.
