Animal Experimentaiton..A Look at the Pros and the Cons

There are some advantages to animal experimentation. Conditions for the animals are getting much more humane (Newscientist.com). For example,

A science major, Emma Hockly, and her team of students from Oxford University studied enrichment on mice with Huntington’s disease under three conditions: large cage with nine other mice equipped with toys, a cage with a cardboard tube, and standard cage. Results from motor coordination tests proved that mice with the enriched cages did much better than those with standard cages; they also seemed healthier and happier despite their condition (qtd. in Newscientist.com).

Lab animals are being taught and persuaded to partake in experiments, rather than using coercion (Newscientist.com). Animals will work with the scientists, rather than against them (Newscientist.com). Test results will also be better because the animals aren’t stressed (Newscientist.com). There will also be welfare benefits
