We all know that, extinction of the dinosaurs paved the path of evolution of humankind. But there were many other human like species who once roamed around this planet but became extinct over the course of time.

In my mind, I thought animal testing meant using make-up products on animals.  So imagine my surprise when I got to know the real concept of animal testing is to force animals to go through various scientific procedures such as inhaling toxic fumes, force-feeding harmful chemicals, and applying chemicals to their bodies in the name of research.
