Animal Testing...

There are millions of animals not only in New Zealand but all around the world that suffer from the experimentation of scientists. From cats and dogs to mice and rabbits, these animals are used to test medicines, vaccines and other medical experimentation that can result in numerous amounts of deaths of animals that have been killed because of pointless reasoning. For example, polar bears from the Antarctic were plunged into a tank full of salt water and oil just to see if they would stay alive. Experiments such as these and many more are the reasons animal testing should be illegal all around the world.
