M\u00e4nniskor f\u00f6der upp husdjur nu mer \u00e4n n\u00e5gonsin tidigare. F\u00e5 individer kan ses g\u00e5 med hundar om du tar en promenad genom en park eller ens bara g\u00e5r genom gatorna. I verkligheten accepterar m\u00e5nga platser nu husdjur, och flera platser har husdjurscaf\u00e9er tillg\u00e4ngliga. M\u00e4nniskor vill ha husdjur av olika anledningar. Vissa m\u00e4nniskor vill beh\u00e5lla dem som lojala v\u00e4nner och f\u00f6ljeslagare, vissa m\u00e4nniskor vill beh\u00e5lla dem f\u00f6r deras sk\u00f6nhet, och vissa m\u00e4nniskor beh\u00e5ller dem f\u00f6r deras ovanliga och unika egenskaper. M\u00e4nniskor har haft husdjur under l\u00e5ng tid. De f\u00f6rsta k\u00e4nda hundarna t\u00e4mjdes f\u00f6r \u00f6ver 14 000 \u00e5r sedan. Sedan dess har m\u00e4nniskor fortsatt att h\u00e5lla alla typer av djur som sina egna, inklusive hundar, katter, f\u00e5glar, kaniner, hamstrar, fiskar och mer. M\u00e4nniskor blir mer och mer intresserade av att h\u00e5lla husdjur. Faktum \u00e4r att husdjursindustrin v\u00e4xer. I USA \u00e4r husdjursindustrin en industri p\u00e5 $72 miljarder. Denna industri f\u00f6rv\u00e4ntas forts\u00e4tta v\u00e4xa. Vissa m\u00e4nniskor v\u00e4ljer att adoptera husdjur fr\u00e5n h\u00e4rb\u00e4rgen ist\u00e4llet f\u00f6r att k\u00f6pa dem fr\u00e5n uppf\u00f6dare eller djuraff\u00e4rer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bara i USA anv\u00e4nds n\u00e4stan 25 miljoner djur f\u00f6r experiment varje \u00e5r. Hundar, katter, kaniner, grisar, lamm, apor och andra varelser \u00e4r bland dem. De \u00e4r inst\u00e4ngda i sm\u00e5 burar d\u00e4r de tv\u00e5ngsmatas med kemikalier, har h\u00e5l borrade i deras skallar och uts\u00e4tts f\u00f6r andra sm\u00e4rtsamma ingrepp. De lyckliga avlivas n\u00e4r deras pl\u00e5ga \u00e4r \u00f6ver. M\u00e5nga andra blir dock \u00f6vergivna och d\u00f6r ofta f\u00f6r att de \u00e4r sjuka och inte har n\u00e5got s\u00e4tt att ta hand om sig sj\u00e4lva. Det finns ingen lag som kr\u00e4ver att laboratorier ska hitta hem \u00e5t de djur de inte l\u00e4ngre beh\u00f6ver, s\u00e5 dessa varelsers \u00f6de \u00f6verl\u00e5ts ofta till individuella forskare. Som ett resultat avlivas m\u00e5nga djur som anv\u00e4nds i experiment helt enkelt n\u00e4r forskningen g\u00f6rs. Det finns ett antal djurr\u00e4ttsorganisationer, som People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), som arbetar f\u00f6r att avsl\u00f6ja djurf\u00f6rs\u00f6kens grymhet och lobbar f\u00f6r striktare regler. Dessa grupper ger ocks\u00e5 st\u00f6d till forskare som vill hitta alternativ till att anv\u00e4nda djur i sin forskning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Djurf\u00f6rs\u00f6k kallas ibland f\u00f6r "djurf\u00f6rs\u00f6k", "djurf\u00f6rs\u00f6k" och "djurforskning". Den anv\u00e4nds f\u00f6r att utv\u00e4rdera en produkts s\u00e4kerhet och effektivitet samt f\u00f6r att f\u00f6rst\u00e5 hur m\u00e4nniskokroppen fungerar. Det finns tre typer av djurf\u00f6rs\u00f6k: In vitro-experiment utf\u00f6rs med hj\u00e4lp av celler eller v\u00e4vnader som har tagits bort fr\u00e5n kroppen. In vivo-experiment utf\u00f6rs med levande djur. I silico utf\u00f6rs experiment med hj\u00e4lp av datormodeller. Djurf\u00f6rs\u00f6k anses vara ett n\u00f6dv\u00e4ndigt ont av vissa m\u00e4nniskor medan andra anser att det \u00e4r en om\u00e4nsklig och grym praxis. Debatten kring etiken kring djurf\u00f6rs\u00f6k \u00e4r komplex och ofta k\u00e4nslom\u00e4ssig. De som st\u00f6djer djurf\u00f6rs\u00f6k g\u00f6r det av olika anledningar. De h\u00e4vdar att djurf\u00f6rs\u00f6k \u00e4r n\u00f6dv\u00e4ndigt f\u00f6r att fr\u00e4mja medicinsk vetenskap och att det har lett till utvecklingen av livr\u00e4ddande behandlingar och vacciner. De h\u00e4vdar ocks\u00e5 att djuren som anv\u00e4nds i experiment \u00e4r v\u00e4l omh\u00e4ndertagna och att deras r\u00e4ttigheter skyddas av lag. De som mots\u00e4tter sig djurf\u00f6rs\u00f6k g\u00f6r det av olika anledningar. De h\u00e4vdar att det \u00e4r grymt och om\u00e4nskligt att anv\u00e4nda djur f\u00f6r experiment. De h\u00e4vdar ocks\u00e5 att det finns alternativa forskningsmetoder som inte involverar anv\u00e4ndning av djur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Testindustrin uts\u00e4tter ofta djur f\u00f6r tester som \u00e4r p\u00e5 v\u00e4g att bli tortyr. Djur f\u00f6ds ofta upp speciellt f\u00f6r att experimenteras p\u00e5. Testerna som utf\u00f6rs p\u00e5 djur \u00e4r ofta sm\u00e4rtsamma och ibland d\u00f6dliga. Djur upplever r\u00e4dsla och lidande under experiment. Djur kan inte ge samtycke till att experimenteras. Testpersoner kan tvingas bli beroende av droger, eller uts\u00e4ttas f\u00f6r hiv eller andra d\u00f6dliga sjukdomar. Ut\u00f6ver de etiska problem som \u00e4r f\u00f6rknippade med djurf\u00f6rs\u00f6k finns det \u00e4ven vetenskapliga problem. Djur reagerar annorlunda p\u00e5 droger och andra \u00e4mnen \u00e4n vad m\u00e4nniskor g\u00f6r. Detta inneb\u00e4r att resultaten av djurf\u00f6rs\u00f6k kanske inte \u00e4r korrekta n\u00e4r de appliceras p\u00e5 m\u00e4nniskor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
