And yes that primate probably lived his entire life with a metal cap bolted to his head, in a gov approved tiny cage size. If it was a teaching hospital hundreds of students did the same 'test' over and over.

Some people do focus on dogs and lots focus on race horses. Have you ever wondered what happened to the hundreds of thousands of race horses, trotters and pacers, the wore out losers?

How about the hundreds of sled dogs that don't make the grade? Or like last year the sled dog tourist dogs. They pull sleds for tourists. After the season they don't need all those dogs. An employee shoots 100 or more dogs. He got PTS and sued for disability as the horror of it all made him mentally ill. He won.

A lot of people get nightmares over that kind of evil, you're not alone. Peace.
