Human Tissue Toxicity Experimentation Will Allow For...

Chimpanzees are the closest living genetic animal to humans, even closer linked than gorillas. Scientist Joe Aguirre’s data conveys there’s a 1.2% difference between humans and chimpanzees DNA. Chimpanzees watch over their families and have long lasting friendships. They spend all day with their family playing, exploring the rainforest, grooming each other.According to one of PETA’s co-founders Alex Pacheco , there’s a different description of how chimpanzees spend their days in Silver Spring , Maryland. Pacheco went undercover at the Institute for Behavioral Research where Edward Taub, a psychologist with no medical training, experimented on chimpanzees by performing vicious surgeries, electric shock, and food deprivation. In one†¦show more content†¦The law excludes other animals such as rats, mice, and birds bred for research—who together constitute an estimated 90-95% of animals in laboratories ( Animals in the Use of Research). In 2013, Europe progressed farther than the U.S, by completely banning animal testing on products (Cosmetics and Animal Testing). This exhibits that U.S is behind the times and needs to make new legislation for animal testing. Due to the lack of conversation about animal testing in the presidential race, there seems to be no future legislation to prevent cruelty towards these animals. Since the government will not help the animals. It is up to the people of America to protest businesses who use animal experimentation. Until, the companies use alternative ways such as vitro testing, human tissue toxicity experimentation, and micro-chip testing ,the world will not be a humane place to live. In order to terminate animal experimentation in drug and cosmetic laboratories, companies must begin research in alternative testing methods. One alternative method is vitro testing , which refers to techniques done in an artificial environment outside of the living organism or cell. Experiments done in a whole organism, such as a mouse, are called in vivo experiments. In the past couple years, researchers have been using in vitro to study Parkinson s patients. According to Doctor Douglas A. Melton, a cell biologist, and George Q. Daley, a
