Medical testing on animals does more good than harm The topic of if is or not ethical the realization of medical

tests in animals, has been a subject of ongoing debate, which has motivated to the formation of groups and ideological movements, with supporters that defend its position energetically, against this I have my opinion. First of all I want to start by saying that animals are living beings like us, the only thing that makes us different is that we reason, think. The attitude of some scientists to approve medical testing on animals, I think that is not correct, it is totally irresponsible and selfish. Irresponsible because animals are living beings and part of our ecosystem and violate them experimenting whit his lives gives reason to animal abuse in any other sense, if is that now we allow us do works so unethical with foundations of that "it is really need to do it " What else will be allowed on?.. The second is that to do these tests in animals we're violating his lives, and scientists that do it, do so appealing to an inferiority by animals, but as I said before animals differ from us only because we reason, now if we see it of this way .. Is it also acceptable then experimental testing in mentally disabled?, No, it's not. The third thing is that to do these things, we should think about what we teach our children, we teach them that animals are inferior to us, that the inferior is vulnerable, just because you cannot defend. We teach them that if something immoral can find it a justification, we can do it, we teach that everything is allowed and most cruel acts are justifiable, without import the lives of others, we teach them to be selfish. And finishing to give my opinion on the subject, I want to make one last point that I would like the scientists responsible for animal experiments were questioned. Should we punish others for our failure as professionals of cannot do well our work? I mean, it is clear that hitherto scientifc charge that do experiments to find cures for diseases or to advance scientific knowledge, have not been able to find answers to questions only with thought and scientific analysis, have not been able because for their discoveries must rely on medical tests in animals, namely "test if they did, they did well," or " if they matched to the formulation of a new discovery"... The day when medical testing on animals finish, not only we will not violate the animals, our fellow habitat, scientists will progress, they will make truly sustainable theories, so much that you will not need further testing in animals, and also we will be teaching them something very nice to our children, we will teach them that every life is sacred in the world and is part of our ecosystem, and therefore we need to value and care each one.
