Anti-vivisection

Anti-vivisection advocates oppose the use of live animals in scientific research and experimentation, particularly when it involves invasive procedures or causes suffering. They argue that such practices are ethically unacceptable, advocating for alternative methods like cell cultures, computer models, and human-based studies. The movement seeks to promote animal welfare, prevent unnecessary pain, and encourage more humane, innovative approaches to scientific and medical progress. Critics of vivisection believe that it often involves unnecessary cruelty and that advancements in science can be achieved without harming animals.
