alternative animal testing

Expermintation on animals dose not work. Scientist kill 17 to 70 million animals in the U.S. alone. Scientist should rely more on human cells bye doing slinical trials on humans. Most people such as scientist reafer to animals to help treat human diseases and treatments. Animals manley make good resourses for experimaintation "because of thier genetic make up is similar to that of a humans".
Most medicine created by animal testing usally result in the medicne to be toxic or to have deadly affects on humans. "In order to make human experimintation more accrate scientist should rely on human cells". Scientist have unfourtanly relied on theses tests for more than a thousand years.
"The toxicity testing on animals has been invaluable in helping pervent a parents worst nightmare a death of a child". Testing on animals have also been proved that some medicens that was tested on animals can be deadly to children or even adults.
Animal testing is tested on mostley rats, rabbits, mice, guinea pigs, and then the lesser numbers on dogs, monkeys an many other species. People say that stolen animals are used for animal testing. The use of animals such as rats and mice and manley the starter of diseases so the drugs created from the testing are usaly are toxic.
"The national Insitute of health in the United State's is the worlds largest funders of animal experimintation. It dispences seven billion tax doolars in grant anualy, of which five billion goes towards studies involving animals". Billions of dollors are spent on animal reasearch a year mabey even more.
Funder's of animal reaserch only know the basics of animal testing they do not read deeper. they think animals are sadatied and most are the other have to suffer for the reaserch. Animals of animal testing suffer great pain just for we can get answeres to diseases. Animals such as rats and mice are usaly the animals not sadated during testing.
The tested are usaly cramed into small cages they are locked behind bars for the reaserch. Animals may get exercise and fed bt the animals end up dying. Usally shortly after being injected with an experiment.
They burn the bodys of the dead animals the animals are great tools for us but animals feel pain. The suffrage is horrific to animals and not to humans, humans rely on animal testing more than they need to.
Animal testing has risen thirty six percent in the last year. Main comaneys in japan have started to ban animal testing yet they test on monkeys such as the Japanese mocaque. They immobalize monkeys in their cages to detect neurolgical activity. Immbalizing animals in cages by locing thier head in a head restraint.
By 2013 they are hoping animal testing will have stopped in all major testing facilitys in japan. Unlike in the United States animal testing is still going and more poor animals suffring and dying everyday on the year.
Alternative testing on animals could save more animals especially people if we test on human cells instead of animals. the human body has more diseases even if animals can contract the same disease as humans the medice may only help animals and not humans.
Animal testing may cure the diseses they get but mast animals cant get certian diseases. the medicne can and may be fatel to humans yet may helpful to animal cures. The human cell is more complexed than animals even if the Gentic make up is the same and they have the same organs as humas.
The use of animal parts such as pig hearts work as heart transplants. human body reject cures of organs from other animls if the body thinks it under atacke. Killing the human who as either used a toxic medicne or the body rejecting an animal organ.
The killing of both animals and humans seem to be fatel to human and animals know matter if the medicine or organ is toxic for the human.

ahhhhhh.......



Just before 8am on Wednesday, a member of the public reported to Gozo SPCA that there was a dog crying in a skip in Marsalforn. The Centre Manager, Betty Berry, immediately responded with the Gozo SPCA funded twenty four hour animal ambulance and requested the local Police to also be in attendance. On arrival with the Police, Betty Berry found a dog feed sack inside the skip in which there appeared to be a dog in severe pain.

On removal from the skip, to their horror they discovered that the dog was on top of another dog inside the same sack. Examination of the second dog revealed it to be dead, but the death was recent since rigor mortis had not set in. The dog that was alive was in severe pain throwing its head back in agony, screaming and fitting. After covering its head to calm the dog, it was rushed to the Vet.

The Vet diagnosed that the dog had been poisoned and was in the final throes of dying an agonising death, sadly the only option was to put it peacefully to sleep. Both dogs were small to medium in size, of terrier cross breed and looked to have been in quite good health prior to being poisoned.

Whilst making a report at the Victoria Police Station, Gozo SPCA was informed that an injured kitten had been handed in by a tourist, who had picked it up nearby; they thought it had been hit by a car. In fact it had a severe eye infection, which could result in the loss of one eye. Other than that the kitten, which is very tame, seems in good health and is eating well and is now under veterinary care at the Gozo SPCA shelter. This cruel abandonment may well have a very happy ending since the Police would like to have the kitten as a Station cat when it has fully recovered from its treatment.

Gozo SPCA personnel have been very shaken and deeply upset by these two cruel events following so closely on the dog found in a Cave last week.

Tear


When our dog Oogy was about ten weeks old and weighed 20 pounds he was tied to a stake and used as bait for a Pit Bull. The left side of his face including most of his ear was torn off. He was bitten so hard a piece of his lower jaw was crushed. Afterward, he was thrown into a cage and left to bleed to death. He was found by police when they raided the facility and taken to an emergency service operating out of Ardmore Animal Hospital, in a suburb of Philadelphia. There, Diane Klein, the Office’s Director of Operations, simply refused to allow the dog to die. Dr. James Bianco, the head of the hospital, operated for several hours to staunch the bleeding, replace the lost blood, and suture the gaping meat that Oogy’s face had become. With the help of everyone on the staff somehow, beyond any calculation of the odds, Oogy survived.

Sad story


My name is Bailey and, as you can see from my picture, I am a gorgeous, solid black, purebred German Shepherd. I was 18 months old when I arrived at the shelter and adoption facility where I live.

Early this year, I was lying on my side in my quarters with my left front paw extended under the fence separating me from the adjacent run. Shockingly, my paw was suddenly grabbed by a dog in the next enclosure. He and his kennel mate pulled my entire leg through this narrow space and, over the next several minutes, tore it off.

My caretaker came running across the shelter grounds at the sounds of my extreme fear, suffering and agony. She managed to restrain the other two dogs and then applied a tourniquet and compresses to my jagged wound in an effort to stop the hemorrhaging. I was driven at high speed across Dallas to a veterinarian hospital, barely clinging to life. The vet, her husband, an orthopedic veterinarian, and other wonderful and caring hospital staff members immediately initiated emergency procedures to stop my bleeding and prepare me for my first surgery. A week later, I underwent a second surgical procedure to combat infection and to use skin grafts from other parts of my body to cover my extensive wounds. I spent more than a month at their hospital where I was constantly told what a wonderful dog I am and how important it was for me to survive.
