Describe the minimalist position on animal research

What will be an ideal response?


"Minimalists" tolerate certain types of animal research but wish to prohibit others depending on the probable value of the research, the amount of distress to the animal, and the type of animal. (Few people have serious qualms about hurting an insect, for example.) They favor firm regulations on research. Researchers agree in principle, although they might differ in where they draw the line between acceptable and unacceptable research.
