Why we shouldn't do animal testing

Did you know that 115 million animals are used every year for cosmetic testing in the United States. Today I'm going to tell you why we should stop animal testing. If you listen, you will find out the process of animal testing, what is tested on animals and last but not least the conditions that the animals are in.

Firstly I'm going to tell you about one process of testing on animals, drug testing. Step 1, someone comes up with an idea of a drug. Step 2, they identify the group of people that they are going to help. Step 3, they use lots of computers to design the drug. Step 4, next they do in vitro research that is testing the ingredients on different animal cells. Step 5, then they will start testing the drug on mice and rats to see what the effect is on people. Step 6, next they do full animal testing. Step 7, this is the last and final step now they move on to human testing. So now you know process of drug testing.

Next I'm going to tell you what is tested on the animals. The most common tests are makeup, shampoo, drugs, toothpaste and hair colouring. Did you know that 315068 animals are tested every day? According to the Humane Society, 50 experiments can use up to 12,000 animals. Did you know that a famous sientest forced dogs to run on a tredmill untill the poor dogs floped and died of a harte atack!

Now that you know a bit more about animal testing I will tell you about the conditions that the animals are kept in. The animals are kept in small cages, but before I tell you the rest, I will tell you what animals are used, the most common animals are mice, fish, rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, farm animals, birds, cats, dogs, mini pigs and monkeys! And those are only the common animals. The animals spend thier lives in cages,unable to make choices or express natural behaviors. Most never get fresh air or sunshine,only bars and concrete.

Now that you know how bad animal testing is I urge you to buy products that are not tested on animals so that animals don't have to go through this painful process. We must save all those innocent animals and make the world a safer place for them.

For the birds

 One day by a huge field of wheat, a flock of little blue birds, landed on a long rope just above the field. Most of them were the same size and they all looked the same.

 I was sitting on the post that was tied to the rope,I thought I could make some friends so I gave a small scwalck,oh I'm sorry I'm a big blue parot,and my name is Hocka I have a little sister I think she is so annoying,sometimes.My sister's name is Manocka she is a blue and purple parot. My Mums name is Sporch and my Dad's name is Kico.Anway back to the story.

Then all of the little blue birds looked at me,then they started emitting me but in a really mean why,so I felt kinda bad. Then I flow into the middle of the group,but then the rest of the drama happened.When I landed on the rope it went down in a upside down triangle,and then I slipped so only my claws were holding me up!

I wasn't scared because the ground was about 70cm away from my head,then two of the little blue birds started to peck at my claws to be fear it started tickling,but slowly one by one my claws let go...then my last claw slipped I just fall on my head but the best part was when all my claws had slipped off the re had slingshot up and because it had been so close to the ground when it slingshot all the little blue birds had lost there feathers so they were all featherless. They all looked so funny!

And this is Hocka sighing out.

Friend ship

Out in the forest one day my big brother took me to a lovely river. Sorry I haven't told you who I even am. I'm a little gray filly my brother is a big black mustang and my mum is a gray with black main and tail. When we got there there was a lion and what looked like a little brother. Oh no. I thought I'm pretty shore my brother will get in a fight and I was right. Next minute the two of them were fighting over how was going to drink the water. Then I walked up to my brother and do you know what he did, he picked me up and threw me to the bank I looked up and the cub's brother did the same thing. Then the two of them stormed off. The cub and I both walked into the water at the same time but instead of fitting over how could have the water and how couldn't we both decided that both of us would stay by the bank. Well that was easy, I thought to myself.
