Re: Can Animal Experimentation Be Justified?
Of course, as with most other conflicting goods, reasonable arguments can be made by both sides: https://animal-testing.procon.org/
And, as with most other conflicting goods, there are moral objectivists on both sides. They simply ignore or dismiss the arguments made by those on the other side.
Me, I'm fractured and fragmented, of course.
In fact, the same grinding ambiguities can pop up even in regard to experimentations on other human beings.

Re: Can Animal Experimentation Be Justified?
In a world where animals are routinely killed for literally no reason whatsoever, quibbling over whether this or that medical reason is good, excellent or of marginal benefit shows that efforts in this area are completely misplaced. That is animal rights are a legit topic but is better directed elsewhere.
