Animal Exploitation
1.
2. Death is much better than the Sufferings & Torture which these poor
creatures endure. They are supposed to live a happy life just like us but are
caught and stripped of their independence in a life which is no better than
HELL.
3. Many animals are used in
scientific and medical research.
They often undergo cruel
methods of testing and suffer
greatly as a result.
Animal experimentation
is both cruel and
unnecessary and humans
have no right to put
innocent animals through
such torture.
5. Vivisection is the practice of experimenting on
live animals and it is a term to which many
scientists object.
In schools and colleges, frogs are the
most commonly dissected animals,
although other species, such as cats and
dogs, are also used.
6. Numerous drugs passed as safe on
animals caused side effects in humans
Skin Rashes
Nausea & Diarrhoea
Blindness
Birth Defects
Fatal Liver Failure

8. The advent of genetic technologies has made possible all
sorts of new and horrific acts of animal exploitation,
from cloning sheep to creating mutant and hybrid
creatures with no dignity or quality of life at all. We
should end animal experimentation before things get
even worse.
THIS WORLD IS NOT OURS.WE HAVE NO RIGHT TO
ALTER THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT THROUGH
SUCH HORRIFIC DEEDS. Do You want
to be like
me???
10. Two of the most common animal
safety tests are eye irritancy and
lethal dose tests.
In eye irritancy tests, chemicals
are dripped into the eyes of
albino rabbits. The animals are
usually immobilised in
stocks from which only their
heads protrude, and their
eyelids are held open with clips.
Often, they receive no
anaesthesia during the tests; some
rabbits break their backs as they
struggle to escape the pain.
After placing the chemicals in
the rabbits' eyes, laboratory
technicians record the
damage to the eye tissue,
which can include inflamed
irises, ulceration, bleeding,
massive deterioration and
blindness
11. In acute toxicity, or lethal dose, tests,
increasing amounts of detergent, eye shadow
and other products are force-fed to rats,
mice, rabbits, guinea pigs and other animals
until a certain percentage of them are
poisoned to death. The widely used lethal
dose 50 (LD50) test continues until at least
50 percent of the animals die, which usually
takes several weeks.
Experimenters observe the animals'
reactions to the chemicals-everything from
convulsions, laboured breathing,
diarrhoea, emaciation and skin
eruptions to bleeding from the eyes,
nose or mouth. Like eye irritancy tests,
lethal dose tests are unreliable at best.
12. In 1957,Laika became the first to be
launched into space, paving the way for
man.
Enos, the space chimp before insertion
into the Mercury-Atlas 5 capsule in
1961.
13. DISEASE RESEARCH
Vivisectors use animals in an attempt to find
cures for human disease
Mice are given cancers by being injected with
tumor cells
In arthritis research, chickens have chemicals
injected into their joints to induce pain and
inflammation
Heart attacks are triggered in dogs by tying off the
hearts main blood supply.

as in humans.as in humans.
15. The FacT is ThaT all animals reacT
diFFerenTly To diFFerenT subsTances.
For example:-
- Lemon juice kills cats.
- Parsley kills parrots.
- Penicillin kills guinea-pigs.
- Strychnine is harmless to monkeys.
- Arsenic is harmless to sheep.
- Insulin causes malfunctions in chickens, rabbit
and mice.
- Aspirin causes birth defect in monkeys.
- Thalidomide is safe in guinea pigs.
- Opren kills humans but not monkeys.
16. Even CigarettesEven Cigarettes
!!!!!!
For decades, and up to this day, animal
experimenters have been testing cigarettes and their
components on animals. They have forced primates,
dogs, rabbits, and rats to breathe concentrated
cigarette smoke to determine what its effects are.
However, after all these decades of research, their
results continue to be "inconclusive" because
some species suffer negative effects while others do not
experience any health problems.

Stats from Home Office,UK
19. An estimated 83% of substances are metabolized by rats in a
different way to humans.
Less than 2% of human illnesses (1.16%) are ever seen in
animals.
95% of drugs passed by animal tests are immediately discarded
as useless or dangerous to humans.
According to the former scientific executive of Huntingdon
Life Sciences, animal tests and human results agree only '5%-
25% of the time'.
9% of anaesthetized animals, intended to recover, die.
Rats are only 37% effective in identifying what causes cancer
to humans. Flipping a coin would be more accurate.

21. We are told that they are less intelligent and important and so
hurting them is acceptable.
Isn't it wrong to cause deliberate suffering & death
Animals experience pain, fear & loneliness
Inside labs, animals have their hearts & other vital organs
deliberately damaged.
They are poisoned to death with toxic chemicals and subjected to
radiation burns.
Brain damaged monkeys are forced to perform repetitive tasks
in order to gain a reward of food and water.
Animals have been shot and exposed to nerve gases and given
addictive drugs.
Those who do not die during the experiment itself are invariably
killed so that their bodies can be examined.
22. Animal research has become a habit and an entire
industry has been built around it.
Scientists & Researchers who have built a career
promoting the value of animal studies, find it difficult
to reverse their positions.
Scientists who probably do not support animal
experimentation may be unwilling to speak out
publicly.
23. After all………………
Time, money, and resources devoted to these experiments could have
gone to human-based research.
Clinical studies
Vitro research
Autopsies
Post-marketing drug
Micro dosing
Surveillance
Computer modeling
Epidemiology
Genetic research
pose no hazard to humans and provide accurate results.
Importantly, animal experiments have exhausted resources that could
have been dedicated to educating the public about health hazards and
health maintenance, therein diminishing the incidence of disease that
require treatment.
