The reaction of members of a given species when exposed to some toxic products or afflicted with a health-threatening fundamental defect, may be similar, different, or opposite to the reaction of members of a different species. This issue can be settled with some degree of confidence only if the reaction has been observed in both species. However, even if the reaction of test subjects appears similar over a short period, responses may differ later and yield quite different final results in the long run. The assumption that the reaction of a species can be assessed from the reaction from some \u201cmodel\u201d species is therefore sheer guess work. Clearly, guess work is not acceptable when human health issues are at&nbsp;stake.<\/p>\n<p>Trust in the animal model has a disastrous impact on human morbidity and mortality.
