Argument Against Animal Experimentation

Abstract: 6 pages in length. Characteristic of any living being is the inherent right to live its existence free from intentional pain and suffering, as well as to exist within the context put forth by nature. This concept has been completely lost on humanity, inasmuch as man has historically utilized animals for whatever purpose he deems necessary without a thought for the animal's needs. The issues that surround animal rights are both broad and complex; not only do they address the primal mistreatment of those from the animal kingdom, but they also appeal to man's inability to recognize the sentience of any creature other than himself. Animal experimentation is a particularly huge component of the animal rights argument, inasmuch as science has taken it upon itself to utilize animals as a means by which to further the human race. Without the slightest bit of concern for the pain and suffering thrust upon laboratory specimens, man continues to poke, prod, burn and mutilate living, feeling animals in the name of science.
