No, I didn't RTFA, but I'm going to blow off some steam anyway... experimenting on mice for human-related studies (behavioral, physical etc) is not only lazy, but fraudulent. It's a waste of tax payer money, and its overly cruel on en entire species of animal.
And we constantly reference these studies with lab mice again and again for answers to human problems. It's a fraud.
- gaius 15y agoIronic then, that this kind of testing is mandated by the government.
- grabble 15y agoIt's only ironic if you believe everything the government tells you.

- grabble 15y agoYes.
