After going through all those things, animals are then usually dumped back into their cage enduring the pain. The body structure, the organic and chemical operation inside of organisms that are required to continue life, and the living cell differences between animals and people make animals poor subject for human beings. Paul Furlong, Professor of Clinical Neuroimaging at Aston University (UK), states that "it's very hard to create an animal model that even equates closely to what we're trying to achieve in the human." The FDA(Food and Drug Administration) reports that 92% of drugs approved for testing in humans isn’t approved for human use. This failure rate increased from 86% in 1985. More than half of the few drugs approved are later taken away or relabeled due to serious or lethal effects in humans. For example, the arthritis drug Vioxx showed to be safe in animal studies, but was withdrawn from market in 2004 after causing over 60,000 deaths in the U.S. Stress, routinely experienced by animals in labs, badly influences the faith in animal research
