This is a controversial subject worldwide. Using a picture of a puppy isn`t helping the situation any. I will give you my OPINION on this subject. When it comes to cosmetic testing, I say ban it! Killing an animal to save us from cosmetics that are dangerous to ALL living things, or may cause a rash, should be stopped. Most ... Read the complete review

I've thought long and hard about this topic, for years now. I've also thought long and hard over the past few hours about whether or not to write about this, as I am aware that this is a very sensitive topic, and I am also aware that there are a lot of hard-liners out there. (On both sides) Before I say anything ... Read the complete review

Vivisection is probably one of the hardest topics that Dooyoo has put up for discussion. Although I would class myself as an animal lover I can not agree that vivisection in all its forms ought to be banned. Nor can I agree with the ridiculous actions of those who claim to defend the right of animals, through acts of inane violence and ... Read the complete review

Writing an opinion on vivisection is a difficult task. The subject arouses such strong emotions from both those who practice and those who oppose it that to commit to an opinion falling either side of the fence is to invite everything from petty name calling to disgust and aggression. Almost everyone reading this opinion will no doubt ... Read the complete review

Let me start by saying this... grow up and look at what you are doing. I have just watched a programme called "The Rise and Rise of Animal Rights" on Channel 4, and let me say that I am disgusted. Not by the experiments that are conducted on animals, but disgusted at the PROTESTORS for their ignorance and total ... Read the complete review

As with other opinions of mine, I try to use the Bible's viewpoint on sensitive issues, as these are my beliefs as well. Vivisection is a subject that invokes many vehement responses. People are prone to go to extremes, and positions taken toward animals are no exceptions. Some people are governed by sentimentality, while ... Read the complete review

With Cambridge Life Sciences being run into the ground by direct action in the news at the moment, I think it's time to say that jobs are more important than some kind of vain animal rights that the pretty and majestic ones should be protected, over the slugs and flies splattered every day by pesticides and car wheels driven by the very ...

If there is one subject which stays close to the hearts of all animal lovers it's vivisection. It literally means ‘cutting while alive’ but is a widespread term covering all sorts of experiementation on animals.

This is one of those long fought over questions, that everyone seems to have varying opinions about. My personal thoughts are that we do not have the right to perform vivisection or to test cosmetics and products on animals. It is cruelty and it is very clearly unneeded. Organisations such as 'The Body Shop' and the supermarket 'Tescos', ... Read the complete review

I may upset some people here with my views, and for this I apologise now. Please don't think I am inhumane or an animal hater. This couldnt be further from the truth.

You'll have to forgive me. This opinion isn't intellectual at all and it may well be ill informed at times, but it is written from the heart.NO NO NO I CANNOT AGREE with vivisection, indeed it breaks my heart just to think about it.

Ask the RSPCA, has the percentage of cruelty cases gone up? Yes. Are animals wandering our streets and worse pushed down holes with leads wrapped around their necks? Do you not think that we are setting an example that the children growing up now and in the last few years will follow, that of cruelty and not looking for a valid ... Read the complete review

I would not sacrifice my life, sight or a family member for a meaningless bunny. Some people may argue that " how would you like it if was done to you?" That is the point, I don`t want it done to me and stinging my eyes or burnig my skin, so we test it on animals untill we get it right! I also eat meat and I will not give ...

Disney is to blame for this debate. The reason people get so upset over animal testing is that they tend to ascribe human behaviour and feelings to animals (anthropomorphism). We see cartoons of animals when we are young. We fall in love with Bambi or Mickey Mouse and when we see animals in real life we tend to believe that they are ... Read the complete review

After reading other people's opinions on vivisection, I am still not too sure how I feel about medical testing on animals. Sure, it may help save the lives of millions of people - but then again it may not. Just because a treatment or drug works on (or harms) a rat or even a chimpanzee, it does not automatically mean that it ... Read the complete review

Any objections if I burn the face off of your pet dog? Or what about me putting harmful chemicals in the eyes of Tiddles your pet cat? Sound too painful?

Animal experiments for either medical purposes or cosmetic have always been met with strong opposition from the public. Should we allow it or is it totally unnecessary?

There are many reasons why things shouldn’t be tested on animals. Animals are alive and living just like you and if we choose to abuse this then one day something will happen that will just make us think twice about this issue.

I will start this opinion by stating that I am a vegetarian and have been since 1987, so you can guess that I love animals and do not like the abuse of them - whether in the food industry, the clothing industry or in vivisection. When I was younger, I had a very easy line of argument on this issue - all forms of testing on ... Read the complete review
