SAN ANGELO, TX– Angelo State University spokesperson Brittany Miller tersely rejected the university is unnecessarily eliminating lots of mice in specious science experiments.
” We can verify a grievance was submitted. We can likewise verify proper research study procedures were followed,” Miller stated in a one-sentence reaction to claims lodged at the school by the Physicians Committee for Accountable Medication.
The PCRM declared in a news release Thursday that Angelo State animal researchers were unnecessarily abusing then eliminating mice to weigh their brains after carrying out scary socializing experiments.
For instance, in one experiment, PCRM declared, newborn mice were removed away from their birth moms and positioned with a foster mother. In many cases, the foster mother really consumed the newborn.
” Amongst the 81 mice killed for this research study, 15 passed away from cannibalism and 7 passed away from ‘disregard or infanticide.'” The PCRM states. “If this research study design is considered clinically legitimate, it is just fitting that we follow the outcomes to the conclusion that kids who are consistently transferred to brand-new foster houses are much more most likely to be consumed by their foster moms.”
The PCRM is a leftist group lined up with Individuals for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA, and amongst numerous companies, “affecting popular opinion with false information and writing, financing and marketing legislation and guidelines to fit their program,” declared Indiana-based Protect The Harvest, a non-profit company that opposes PETA-led or inspired advocacy.
Safeguard The Harvest declared that the PCRM, in spite of having ‘doctors’ in its name, just has 7% of its members who are medical professionals. What is more, Safeguard the Harvest declared, “The American Medical Association (AMA), as soon as described PCRM as a ‘fringe company’ that uses ‘dishonest strategies’ and is ‘thinking about perverting medical science.'”
Nobody at Angelo State would indicate these hot takes about the PCRM, nevertheless.
