Animal Cruelty

Q) do u think it’s okay for scientists to experiment on helpless animals, even if the experiment might eventually save human 

lives?

This is a very debatable topic, many doctors use different species to study genetics, they do not think of what they are doing but they only look for their answers and results. I feel using these innocent creatures is a crime, we have to remember that even though we are more powerful, we share mother earth with different beings created by god. We can’t forget that animals were created way before human beings came in; it is their right to live on this earth. This is not our world it is theirs; we are just taking a part of it. Even though we own a big part of this world it is not fair to the other species if we bother them. This doesn’t apply just to scientist but even to other people who think animal cruelty is a sport like hunters. As Paul Rodriguez has rightly quoted that “Hunting is not a sport. In a sport, both sides should know they're in the game.” Hunting is a very bad way of entertaining ourselves; imagine an elephant with a bow and arrow coming to kill us. This would have been the case if apes did not develop into humans! We understand that we have matured in such a way that we are big in numbers and stronger with weapons but that doesn’t mean that we stop natural growth.

Well, as I said it is a debatable topic as scientists use these creatures for our future survival but it ends up in their death. It is something like using small things for a bigger thing. It is a good idea but would we like it if we were the small thing? We should put ourselves in nature’s shoes and then look at this situation; we will surely feel the pain.
