Our Problem: Animal Testing
Some Background
Animal testing: use of non-human
animals in experiments
Experiments test compounds that
control variables which affect
disease progression
The testing of animals raises
multiple ethical questions
The costs of testing on and
maintaining animals are extremely
high
Statistics on Animal Testing
Almost 100 million animals were killed in the U.S. last year
600,000+ animals were subjected to tests considered cruel
Approximately $16 billion spent on testing
92% of experimental drugs dont show reliable results in humans
