Animal testing is the use of non-human animals in experiments that seek to control the variables that affect the behavior or biological system under study. The United Kingdom was the first country in the world to implement laws protecting animals. In 1822 an Act to Prevent the Cruel and Improper Treatment of Cattle was passed by Parliament. The UK government has publicly stated that animals are sentient beings, not merely commodities, and has confirmed its commitment to the highest possible standards of animal welfare. Animal Welfare Act, an overhaul of pet abuse laws replacing the Protection of Animals Act, came into force in England and Wales in 2007.

Not cosmetics and under very strict and humane conditions for medical testing if no other way exists

They should be tested on criminals who were going to be sentenced to death
@989K7FQ2yrs2Y
No, only humans that have consented to being tested on and who are rewarded.
@8KQWZ9J4yrs4Y
No, test on criminals instead
@97ZZPRC2yrs2Y
It should be avoided at all possible intervals and care should be taken to ensure the animals are not in pain (pain killers etc). Never for cosmetics.
@8THRQM23yrs3Y
yes but not on endangered animals or animals that are vital in the food chain
