** Human Needs vs. Animal Rights ** **When I read this article, I thought of how sad it would be if my pets were taken away, but think about it. Would you rather save a cute little animal or an actual human being? I'm a huge animal lover, but just think of all the people who could've died if we hadn't tested animals! I think us humans should be able to take charge of animals, but at the same time, only use them if we need to. If someone took away my animals, I would probably be really upset, but at the same time know that they might save thousands of lives.**

**On page 316 in the science textbook, it shows a picture of a person holding up a yellow sign that says "Product Testing on Animals. Painful, Unnecessary, Deadly, Unreliable". Actually, I think this sign is wrong. Yes, it is deadly and painful to animals, but it isn't always unnecessary or unreliable. Animal testing is actually very useful. Many medicines of different kinds that have been tested on animals have been very successful. If someone produced a drug that would wipe out cancer, and at the same time been tested on an animal, I would be sad to know that an animal died, but at the same time, I would be very happy to know that many lives would be saved. This how I feel about human needs and animal rights, and I hope you agree!**
