El Loro I don't like animals being used for medical research and I hope that computer simulation will make this a thing of the past. I found this article which was posted a couple of weeks ago. Apologies for the length of it but people need to be aware of the numbers involved. Animal rights campaigners have condemned an increase in the number of animal experiments performed in the UK as "a national disgrace". According to figures from the Home Office, the number of procedures in 2010 rose by 105,186... [ more ]
