RE: The need for using animals as experimental subjects, and why releasing them into the wild is a terrible idea!

in #science7 years ago

This is such a sad situation for the animals. I understand it being a necessity but still. Stripping a living being of it's choice and experimenting on them leaving no chance of survival in the end. A painful ending to painful means.

Sort:  

I know, it is terrible, but sadly there is no way around it. Even the best in vitro simulation of the conditions inside a living organism is an overtly simplified substitute that lacks the complexity and interplay seen in a whole animal body.
