Argument

Animal cruelty in America is a huge problem that needs to be resolved. Although it has been beneficial in the past, it is time to change and find alturnatives to using animals. 17 million animals are used for animal testing per year. 4 million of them are used for non-medical products.
It is true that medical break throghs have come from animal testing but this does not mean that we should keep relying on it instead of thinking of future alturnatives. Animal rights activists argue that it is barbaric and that we should use new ways to test deseases instead of injecting them in to innocent animals.
Although this problem will not end soon laws are being passed to help protect and save some animals from the torture of being tested on. This is a problem that needs to be recognized more and hopefully ended.
