Jeremy Bentham saw the need for animal protection worldwide and therefore created the movement. The rallying cry for the protection of animals attended by Jeremy Bentham was "The issue is not: they [animals] cannot reason or speak, but they can suffer." Both the United States and Great Britain signed the first "anti-cruelty" laws in Britain (John Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health). Over the past 50 years, new rules regarding animal cruelty have been created based on people's new opinions about changing animals (Kilroy). The leading cause of death and disability is diabetes in approximately 18.2 million people, and diabetes also affects dogs and cats. So far incurable, there are medications and treatments to deal with diabetes (“Americans For Medical Progress”). Apparently some doctors disagree. According to British professor Paul Furlong, animals are not humans, so they are unsuitable test subjects, especially from a cellular or metabolic perspective. It is difficult to create a model similar to people (“Pros and Cons”). Not only does animal testing take time, but a lot of animals are used and it's expensive, which isn't worth it when 9 out of 10 drugs fail, clinical trials don't target people even if they helped cure an animal. Around 1975, other animal welfare groups appeared around. the world and these programs also question the use of animals for riding, testing, etc. Some other programs question the morality of using animals. (John Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health). Animal testing should be a last resort if the product can be tested using alternative tests (Collins). There are around 50 different alternative methods for testing products. When it comes to testing alternatives, there is a system called the 3 R's. The first is replacing testing that uses animals, the second is reducing the use of animals, and the third is perfecting a procedure to minimize animal pain during testing. test. By using blood donations, scientists can use it to replace traditional “pyrogen” tests, tests involving potentially toxic drugs. Episkin is basically artificial human skin to save rabbits from skin corrosion and irritation tests. The fish threshold method reduces the use of fish when testing chemicals. Reduced local lymph node testing, a type of sensitization or stimulation test, for skin allergy testing that reduces mouse testing by 75%. Neutral Red 3T3 Absorption Phototoxicity Test Reduces Uses for Rats During Sunlight Sensitivity Testing (Humane Society Of The United States). Another alternative is the use of computer models and virtual drug trials. Microdosing is when people are given small amounts of the drug
