Review for Stop Animal Exploitation NOW!, Milford, OH, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

I fully and wholeheartedly agree with saving animals from being killed for any other reason, except for food or scientific discovery, and by euthanasia when needed. Killing for food is necessary, because humans are omnivores. I will change this statement, if something similarly nutritious and delicious as meat can be made from plants. But killing animals MUST be done in a HUMANE way. Sometimes when I have chicken wings I see a broken humerus bone with signs suggesting it happened while the chicken was alive. I am for humane keeping and handling of all animals, including turtles and tortoises hunted for their meat and believed medicinal properties in China and India.
The use of animals in scientific medical research is controversial, but strictly regulated that does not allow handling them in a cruel way. They are anesthetized when operated on, and yes, sometimes killed, in a humane way. That is done, because your grandmother needs a medication to stay alive in a humane way, like not in pain. Those thousands of mice die in a humane way, not by a trap in your kitchen or caught by your cat; they help developing medicines for you and for your grandma. They die for us, humans, humanely.
