I don't support animalresearch and I have no sympathy for animalresearchers. I don't believe they want an honest dialogue about what they are doing to animals. I do believe they want prestige, tenure, royalties and patent rights. I would never advocate violence against a researcher.
The feud between animalrights activists and researchers is among the bitterest in science. But many researchers - although adamant that animalresearch remains critical to finding cures and expanding medical knowledge - have come to concede that using creatures as human stand-ins is unnecessary for many procedures.
I found a link to them on ANIMAL's blog (ANIMAL is a Portuguese animalrights group.) These scientists are NOT an animalrights group. They do support some animal-based studies (which sucks); HOWEVER, they acknowledge that much animalresearch is useless.
To which I say, many universities are just as opaque and irresponsible in their animal care as any private sector entity. I'm as skeptical about this claim as other animalrights advocates. Tags: animalresearch hamner institutes university of chapel hill.
