NO Animal should be forced to endure a life of pain and misery just so that humans can live lives of convenience. It is an atrocious, barbaric practice, and if there were any justice in the world it would be outlawed.

of course you wouldn't mind dying of smallpox, rabies, diptheria or tetanus or any of the other scary diseases for which we have vaccines now developed through animal research...of course when you are sick or down with fever you don't take a pill...hey its development involved animal research...i hope you do all of this before passing holier than thou comments about animal research and researchers

Watching the chimps going outside for the first time also brought tears to my eyes. I agree that those on death row and pedophiles should be the ones tested on!

I am not a person who usually gets upset by what we do our research on - you have to test ideas on something. However, I was moved to tears by the sight of those poor chimps, finally getting outdoors into the sun. Seems like we should let all research animals out to live like normal animals for at least some time during their use. Of course, I'm all for pedophiles being used - perhaps not death row; lately there seems to be a lot of mistakes on who belongs on death row.

Watching these chimps go outside for the first time brought tears to my eyes. They are awesome, intelligent creatures that do not deserve this treatment,nor does any animal!Medical experiments on chimps HAS TO STOP!!! I have a great idea,why not use the pervs and the lifetime criminals on death row for medical experiments!!

my thoughts exactly
