However, it is equally reasonable to say that animals have their intrinsic right to life. In other words, animals and humans have totally the same rights to live on the earth and therefore no one should take the life of the other for any purpose. Animal protectors also raise the evidence that laboratory rats have nerve system which means that they can feel pain. That is why many opponents of animal testation suggest computer simulation, hoping to replace the cruel way of experimentation with machine.
To summarize this essay, while I believe animals should be respected under every circumstance, I have to admit that there is no better way than medical testation on animals to secure patients against potential dangerous effects. Reconciliation is hard to achieve, but suggestion can be to control the number of animals tested on in laboratory and reduce the pain that they may endure during the experiments.
