1) we are higher species. It's obviously that in nature the higher kill/eat the lower, why is laboratory animal science (LAS) so wrong then? It's nature + it's got even some benefits for the animal itself.
2)the only persons who may tell something about this topic are those ones who are educated in science and understand nature as it is. This means, if you do not know what it is all about, you cannot tell if it's good or bad just by the feeling you've got
3)any person who is against LAS is also getting the advantages of LAS. That's kind of contradictory: vegetarians don't eat meat because harm done to the animals, so contra-LAS persons shouldn't get any medical assistant then...
4)the contra-LAS pesons realized that I know must study for 2 exams laboratory animal science. Practically this means that the time I normally put into my work I now have to put in these exams. Honestly these courses learn me nothing:
- within 3 weeks I won't remember it and I have to search it into books again
- although I had courses I can still do anything with the animals what I want
5)tendency of people is look at the animal as they are humans. Well guess what they aren't !
The message is there's nothing wrong if you work with animals. And starting measures like annoying people with exams is useluss because everything you do, it's shown to you by your supervisor who knows how to handle the animal.
