"Still, it is true that animal tests, even on multiple species, do not always predict the toxicity of pharmaceuticals or industrial chemicals in humans. This doesn't make animal testing any less crucial to the development and testing of drugs. But in an era in which drug development is growing increasingly sophisticated, it may point to the need for new designs in animal testing."

My Paraphrase of Original Source

In his article, Allen asserts that even when tested on multiple species, animal testing does not always properly represent the toxicity of drugs in humans. Although this fact doesn't make animal testing any less vital to the development and testing of drugs, this is a time in which pharmaceutical creation is rapidly progressing, and a better way to test drugs may be needed.

My Summary of Original Source

Testing critical to drug development and there should be a better model of the human reaction to a drug than animal testing.
