Can we make a point here of separating the cosmetic side and the medical side of animal testing.
I disagree with testing on animals to make cosmetics, there are now ways (such as recreating human skin) to test these safely.
I fully agree with testing on animals for medical gain. Curing diseases and life endangering illness are all right by me. Also we NEED to use animals for this as well as they need to be tested on real life objects, human made skin cells or organs wont work.

Because we are talking cancer and HIV, the body is a lot lot more complex than human tissue.
