It should be outlawed the medical experiments done on these animials.
I can not understand how any human can excuse this kind of torture on living feeling animals. I don't think God put animals on earth for man to torture and abuse.

What kind of animal rights activist is Carla Capalli? When her ex-husband (Julio Diaz) was caught throwing dogs off a bridge (in lieu of euthanasia), she did nothing about it! But back washing being what it here on island, he got off on a technicality (or it was swept under a rug), so nothing was done about it by the authorities either... Welcome to Puerto Rico!

All I can do is to recommend reading Robert Preston's "The Hot Zone." The facility that was destroyed by disease was also importing Crab-eating Macaques. As long as humans continue to use live animals for testing, we risk creating our own demise. Because, through carelessness, inattention, or deliberate malice, something will always go wrong even in the most secure environment.
