section 32, Our stolen future.

 It has been recognized that what could be happening to animals in areas such as great lakes or Sibera has a significant pertinence in human life due to the shared evolutionary inheritance in our environment, and the resemblance that we share with other living organisms. In other words, detriments seen in lab animals and in wildlife has indicated symptoms that are increasing in human beings nowadays. Due to this web of unavoidable connections, persistent chemicals have found their ways to our body systems. Though many argue that the use of animals does not provide accuracy when it come to cancer testing and the use of hormone-disrupting chemicals. Taking endocrine as an example, it has been shown that in some cases very high doses may cause less damage than a lower dose. Which means that testing with very high doses would miss some effects that would appear if they were given lower doses. At the same time, scientists of different range of specialities deduced that hormone disruptors are threatening not only animal populations but also the future of human lives.
This is demonstrated by the exposure of humans to chemicals worldwide. For this matter, and thanks to the animals testing, studies help identify red flags of current levels of contamination which are manifested more in wildlife.
