As a pet owner, my view on this matter is will have a hint of bias towards how I respond. For me animals that are considered to be pets in the house I tend to cringe when I think of animals being put to death when it is for science sake. From reading an article it stated how people and myself believe that animals do have a mortality associated with them. If the animal being tested on is going to experience pain in the future wither it be physical and or mental then the animal should not be tested on. In the 21 st century scientist do believe now in administering various drugs so the animal(s) do not feel pain while the animal is being worked on for a live study say for the development of a bone scaffold which is implanted to test if viable bone can grow etc..
What other methods or models can be done to take out animal testing? Can animal testing be the thing of the past?
