People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals

Inhumane Treatment Most animals in animal testing, like hamsters and mice, are rarely protected by animal testing laws and often die during or waiting to be tested on (NEVAS). The cycle of abuse is prominent in the testing environment. There has been many trial and errors when it comes to formulating laws and regulations. A few that have been effective and are still here today are the Animal Welfare Act and the PHS Policy. The government implications on animal testing haven't inhibited the progress

PETA: Animal Rights Doesn’t it kill you to see a movie and see an animal get killed or just hurt in it? Good thing that’s all special effects. Back in the day, around 1966, movies didn’t always use special effects. Khartoum, a movie based on a holy war in the Sudan desert, directed by Basil Dearden and Eliot Elisofon, used horses a great deal, but did not use the special effects in order to not hurt the animals. Many horses died in the making of this movie, as well as others, even including

Animal testing has been an important type of research in various science fields for many years, because it has been able to replicate the results of the research to positively affect humans.

In reality, that is what animals have to endure on a daily basis. In North America, there are no bans on animal testing for cosmetic purposes. Which means, animals have to be poked, scratched, burned and tortured so that we can benefit from the products it produces. As stated by Suzi who runs a blog based on cruelty free cosmetics, in all of the makeup

Animals have always played an essential role in many aspects of this world. Some people look upon these roles with favoritism, some with disgust.

Some animals are used as food by humans and other animals, while others are trapped for their furs. Many times people acquire animals for pets, only to neglect or mistreat them. For many years, the ethical treatment of animals has been a very controversial

We Need More Animal Research, Testing, and Experimentation   A life can be taken or created in a matter of seconds and with that has come the miracles of modern medicine. People have come to expect science to save lives, prevent illness, relieve suffering and improve the quality of life. The means of curing, treating and preventing diseases are not achieved by magic or accident.

bleed out and die. That is in essence how the final moments of many of the domesticated animals we raise in captivity for the sole purpose of consumption plays out. The actual ways they’re killed may differ from farm to farm and beast to beast, but that element of shock, surprise, and sudden betrayal by the world is persistent from that analogy to actuality. Not only is that a cruel life to impose on animals or others, but the mass proliferation of industrial meat production and mass consumption

Within our society, we as humans have many ethical issues that we must discuss in order to progress. Even with all these issues many individuals don't look to understand animals and their rights to be free as well as healthy.
