research because humans usually need
products that are tested on them. Many

cruel. However,animals have been “the
key” to many cures. This depend on your
point of view.

animals share around 95% of genes with
humans. Also animals and humans have similar diseases. In that way, advance in human
medicine also suggests an advance for veterinary medicine. Furthermore, in his articule on
animal research. Dr. Giuseppe remussi states that without animal research medicine would
stop and without animal testing nothing would have posible. For instance, smallpox has been
