In this piece of writing, I want to discuss on this statement regarding an objection to the use of animals as models or representation of human beings in scientific research.
I acknowledge the idea that every living things starting from micro-organisms to macro-organisms have every right to live and it make me sad when I imagine what kind of sufferings they undergo when they are used as research models. But in this case, I half agree with animal rights activist.
In my opinion, we all have duties or functions, for example doctors to help sick people, soldiers to defend the people, parents to nurture their babies and so are animals. The animals have a crucial role in scientific research particularly in medical research only, so for me this is one of their function which made me grateful to them especially research animal models
On the other hand, I agree if the experiment is a non-related medical study for example study for cosmetics or any other research, this type of research should not use animals as their models. Therefore, it is really important to weigh it and maybe considering exception in some cases where it is necessary.
People often take life for granted. For some people,there is always that mentality that the human race is always superior to any other life-being. If we are not careful enough we may find ourselves living alone in this planet.

DeleteIn my opinion, we should not use animals for cosmetics, but it is necessary evil to use animals for medical test.
